We are delighted to reveal the winning designs of this year’s West End Lights poster competition! Children from both of the West End’s schools entered, and their wonderful, colourful drawings showed us just how magical the West End can look on a winter’s night. This year we have two winning designs, one from each school, and both are now on our postcards and posters.
Congratulations to Arlo Garner from St Faith’s Church of England Infant and Nursery School, and to Beatrice Hul from St Faith and St Martin Church of England Junior School!
A big thank you to every child who took part, and to the teachers and staff at both schools who made the competition possible. Choosing just two winners was not easy!
Look out for your postcard
Both designs have been turned into postcards, which will be popping through letterboxes across the West End soon. They are printed thanks to our generous sponsors The Sycamore and Anna’s Place. Both venues will be open on the night for food and drink, to eat in or take away, and there will be live music at The Sycamore.
Download and print
Want to spread the word? Download the postcards, print them out and put one up in your window, at work or on a noticeboard near you.
