Christmas in our school

Dear companions,
We want to tell you the tradition of the Christmas in our school. Christmas are congratulations of Winter than we make in our school. To choose the best Christmas, a contest takes place in which all the pupils of the school can participate.
A group of teachers choose the best of each cycle in the school.
There are seven cycles, one in infants, three in primary, two in secondary and other one in baccalaureate. Of this seven Christmas, there goes out the best, which turns into the winner of the school. The prize for the one who makes the best Christmas, is that they are given him(her) fifty copies of his(her) Christmas and that the Christmas is sent to all the families of the school as a Christmas letter of congratulation. In the letter of congratulation which is sent, one of our teachers called Luis Antonio Puente writes a poem.
The Christmas that they present to the contest has to show the
Christmas spirit and it is possible to make any work from the
water-color, oil... To be accepted by the jury it has to have size of average Din-4. Normally the winner is from secondary or from baccalaureate because they are older than the other pupils and they know how to draw or handle better the computer, because it´s possible to make by hand or using the computer. The design has to be unpublished, that´s to say, It can't be copied.
In primary, teachers use the Christmas contest to get a mark in Arts, and in first and second of secondary they also do it like that.
Here we leave you some of the best Christmas´s congratulations in the history of our school , from 1981 to 2009 with Luis Antonio Puente´s collaboration.
