AN ESTATE agent has announced the winners of its Christmas drawing competitions.

Hamptons International in Hove organised the competition in conjunction with Windlesham School in Brighton.

The Draw A Christmas Cracker challenge was open to all primary schoolchildren from Windlesham, while the nursery school took part in a Decorate The Christmas Cracker competition.

Paul Hawes, Hove Hamptons International lettings manager, announced Allegra W-D as the winner of the Draw A Christmas Cracker contest, while Sophie Vera won the Decorate The Christmas Cracker competition.

Mr Hawes said: “Both showed huge creativity and we are pleased to spread some festive cheer with this competition.”

Members of the public voted for the winner by posting the name of their favourite artist in the ballot box located in the local branch.

The winners have been awarded an art kit each, while £200 has been donated to Windlesham School.

Mr Hawes said: “Thank you to all those who entered the competition, it has been such a fantastic initiative and we’re absolutely thrilled with the results from everyone involved.

“We are so impressed with the standard this year and were delighted to display all the entries in our window over the festive season.”
