🌸🐣 **Easter Colouring Competition Winners** 🐣🌸

From everyone here at OW Ellis Funeral Directors, Shotton, we would like to say a huge congratulations to our two wonderful winners from Ysgol Ty Ffynon!

Over the past two weeks, we have been delighted to have all of the children’s beautiful Easter pictures proudly on display in our window. They truly brightened our branch and brought many smiles to both our team and the families who visited us.

A big thank you to every child who took part – your creativity and effort made this competition so special. 💛

Our winners were chosen by some of the lovely families who have visited our branch, making it even more meaningful.

We were also delighted that
Harri, a former pupil of Ysgol Ty Ffynon, was able to hand over the prizes, which were kindly donated by Best of the Bunch 🌷

Well done again to our winners, and thank you to everyone who joined in!
