Coming up with a design for this year’s corporate Christmas card was child’s play for one Midland law firm.
Leamington solicitors Wright Hassall appealed for help from local school children to submit Christmas card designs and Bishops Tachbrook C of E Primary, Kingsway Community Primary, Our Lady's Princethorpe and Westgate Primary School responded.
Entries were submitted into three categories corresponding to pupils’ school years – one - two, three - four and five - six – and a winner from each category was rewarded with tickets to a Christmas pantomime while participating schools received a cash donation.
Jacob Wall from Our Lady’s Princethorpe, Anna Cross from Kingsway Community Primary School and Alise Kuske from Westgate Primary School were the overall winners.
Tara King from Wright Hassall led the competition and is delighted with the final designs that will now end up in the mailboxes of clients all over the world.
She said: “It can be a struggle to come up with a suitable design for a corporate Christmas card.
“We felt this would be a nice way to try something different this year and an opportunity to develop links with local schools.
“It was interesting to see how different schools approached the challenge. Some did it in the classroom while others set it as homework or an optional task.
“All the designs were lovely and really different and you can see how much work went into them.. All the entries are on display in the reception of our Olympus Avenue headquarters.
“They will soon go out to more than 2,000 clients and contacts and the winners each get five tickets to see the pantomime performance of Cinderella at the Birmingham Hippodrome as a thank you.
“Runners-up will receive book tokens and we are also making a donation to each school as a thank you for participating.”
