Teacher of Art at KSA, Mrs Neela Haywood said: “We had a great response to this year’s competition with more than 300 designs submitted to the Art department in December.
“The quality of designs was excellent and very varied.  It was really hard to decide on a winning entry and also runners up, and this is why we also wanted to mention some of the other top designs from students.”
She added: “This year, for the first time, we gave families the opportunity to get their child’s artwork printed via My Childs Art and as a result of the sales generated we raised more than £88 for the art department.”
