CHILDREN can enter an Oxfordshire MP's Christmas Card competition this half term.

Banbury MP Victoria Prentis is encouraging all primary school-aged pupils to take part, with the theme 'nativity animals'.

The winning design will be used for the MP's official Christmas card, which will be sent to more than 1000 people in her constituency and across the county.

Three runners-up will also have their entries printed on the back of the card.

All entries should be sent to Victoria’s constituency office by 31 October: Heyford Park House, Upper Heyford, Bicester, OX25 5HD.
