A Chance for Local Children to Light Up our Landmark! The Abbey is kicking off the Christmas season with a competition to highlight the talent and creativity thriving within our community. Aimed at the children of our parish our “Design Your Festive Bauble” competition offers an exclusive opportunity for one lucky winner to switch on Holycross Abbey Christmas tree lights alongside Fr Celsus.
Do you have a budding artist or a creative young mind in your family? Here’s how to get involved: The competition starts Fri 1st Nov and runs until 3pm Fri 30th Nov 2024. To enter, create a festive bauble, Use paint, markers, glitter, paper, cardboard or anything you like. Once your design is complete, snap a photo of your masterpiece and send a photo to our team at hbparishoffice@gmail.com. Please include your child’s name and age, so we can identify all participants.
After 11am Mass on the 1st December, every entrant will decorate The Holycross Abbey Children’s Christmas tree. Once the Tree is decorated, the lucky winner will be announced & will officially switch on All Abbey Christmas tree lights with Fr Celsus. This will be followed by Refreshments & the giving of Selection boxes to all entrants in The Dormitory Upstairs.
We encourage parents, teachers, and guardians to support the young artists in their lives and help them submit their designs. The more, the merrier! For more information contact The Holycross Abbey Jubilee Team 0504-43124 hbparishoffice@gmail.com
