Congratulations to Grade 2 student Lheanna Basilan of Beaverlodge Elementary School, winner of the 2018 Peace Wapiti Public School Division (PWPSD) Christmas card art contest. The contest cycles through the four Grade divisions annually. This year, 283 Grades 1-3 students submitted entries under the theme, “The best thing about Christmas is…” PWPSD Trustees chose the winning artwork. Lheanna’s colourful scene, featuring a snowman surrounded by Christmas trees against a starlit background, earned her a swag bag and a $100 pizza party for her class. Congratulations to Lheanna and thanks to all who participated in the contest. -30-
