Mr Mark Hodges is delighted to invite all primary school students from Years 3-6 across the electorate of Castle Hill to participate in the Mark Hodges’ 2024 Christmas Card Competition.
This competition offers students an opportunity to express the joy and spirit of Christmas through their artwork. The winning design, as well as three runners-up, will be featured on Mr Hodges’ official Christmas card.
“I am truly inspired by the imagination and talent of our young people. Their artwork reflects the heart and soul of our community, and I look forward to seeing the unique ways they capture the essence of Christmas,” Mr Hodges said.
Mr Hodges is offering a $100 Castle Towers voucher to the first prize winner, and $50 vouchers to each of the three runners-up.
This year’s theme for the competition is: “The Angel’s Joyful Message: A Saviour is Born” – inspired by Luke 2:10-11: ‘But the angel said to them, “I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. A Saviour has been born to you”’.
The competition is open to Primary Schools within the Castle Hill electorate, including:

The winning designs will be selected by Mr Hodges alongside three other leading community members. The chosen designs will be featured on his official Parliamentary Christmas cards, along with the student’s name and school.
The winning students will be presented with their prizes by Mr Hodges during a special presentation at their school in November, subject to the school’s availability.
