Judge and best-selling author Sam Hay said: \u00a0\u201cEdwin\u2019s story was a really fun, original idea and I absolutely loved it. He took the traditional theme of Father Christmas and flipped it on its head to create a really engaging and funny read.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The winner of the age seven to nine category is Phoebe Hall who wrote a \u00a0poem about Santa being too sick to work on Christmas Eve. \u00a0For her efforts she has won \u00a3250 for her school, Ropley C of E Primary School in Hampshire. Sam felt it was a really creative idea and brilliantly thought out, because what on earth would happen if Father Christmas got sick?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The winner of the age four to six category is Tom O\u2019Kane of St Ursula\u2019s E-ACT Academy in Bristol.
