Three schoolchildren have been selected for their Christmas creativity after winning a card designing competition.

Barnet, Enfield and Haringey NHS Trust (BEH) held a Christmas competition for staff and children at local schools to design a card to send out to members and stakeholders.

After over 130 entries, the three winners have been chosen.

The winners received a £25 gift card for all their effort as well as their design being turned into a Christmas card.

Sonya Duggan, aged 10, is from the after school club at George Spicer Primary School.

She said: "I took part in the competition because I love doing creative things which are different.

"I am really overwhelmed that I have won. I didn't know the competition was going to be so great and I am really pleased to have won. Christmas is going to be even better now and I know my family will love the card."

Another winner was 8-year-old Tiago Pieroni Pasterny from Woodridge Primary School.

Tiago said: "I took part in the competition because my mum thought I was really good at art. She knew about the competition and said I should go for it."

When I knew I had won I was so amazed. I am so pleased the judges thought I was good at art."

The final winner is 10-year-old Laila Tayeb, who designed her card at the after-school club at Whitings Hill Primary School in Barnet.

She said: "I thought a lot about Christmas and though I would put in trees and presents and the snowman. I was so excited when I knew I had won."

"Thank you so much for the gift card too. I love Dr Who, so I think I will buy something about Dr Who for Christmas."
