KERRY Education and Training Board received over 200 entries from their eight Kerry ETB Schools throughout the county for their annual Christmas Card Competition.
The standard was so high, that apart from the one overall winner, this year there were four runners up picked by the judges.
The winner and runner-ups were invited to Kerry ETB Head Office and were presented with their prizes by Colm McEvoy, CEO, Kerry ETB.
Colm said; “Every card here today is a winner and we are very proud of all our schools entries. The winning card will be sent out all over the country as the Kerry ETB Christmas Card”.
