Hundreds of students from across the region designed their best Christmas card that reflected what they loved the most about their local area.

Ms Cleeland visited Nagambie Primary School to announce she had chosen Sarah’s design.

“I was looking for a design that meaningfully represented our great part of the state, and I was very impressed with the way Sarah captured one of our great traditions, the Christmas barbecue,” she said.

“The students took inspiration from a range of places and facets of life in our electorate, including our agriculture industry, waterways and other natural wonders such as our native flora and fauna.

“Looking through the beautiful designs our local students created was a wonderful way to end the year, and I sincerely thank the students and schools for taking the time to design a Christmas card for me this year.”

Ms Cleeland said she was excited to keep the competition running for future years.

While Sarah was announced as the overall winner, several other students from schools across the region received honourable mentions and prizes.
