2025 OAK Trust Christmas Card competition
Welcome to the OAK Trust Christmas Card Competition 2025! This year, we’re inviting our pupils to get creative and design a unique Christmas card for the chance to win a prize and have your card featured as the official Trust Christmas card.
Last year’s winning design featured a snowy scene with a variety of colour and texture which really brought the scene to life. Could yours be the next winning entry?
