The Children’s and Youth Work team is happy to announce the winners of the 91º£½ÇÂÒÂ× Children’s birthday card competition.
Launched in April, the competition was aimed at children aged 12 and under who were asked to design a card that a church or synod could send to a child aged one-to-12.
Choosing the winners was a tricky task for the team as many bright and creative entries were submitted, but after careful deliberation a design was chosen for each age group.
Lorraine Webb, Programme Officer for Children’s and Youth Work said: “We were really impressed with all the entries and a big thank you to all those who took part, especially to our creative prizewinners: Haklie, Jacob, Tyler, Joshua, Norah, Cleo, Megan, Ahayah, Mitchel, Sydney, Zalem, and Zach all from Barrow United Reformed Church Primary School, in Clitheroe.â€
The competition was run by the Children’s and Youth Work team as part of their activities to celebrate the 91º£½ÇÂÒÂ×’s 50th anniversary and the launch of 91º£½ÇÂÒÂ× Children at General Assembly on 9 July.
As Lorraine explaines: “All children associated in any way with the denomination are part of 91º£½ÇÂÒÂ× Children and this is one lovely way that the church can mark a child’s special day by sending a birthday card that recognises that.â€
The cards should be available to purchase from the in October so please keep an eye out on the 91º£½ÇÂÒÂ×’s for further details.
