Has anyone in here got any tips for me on composing, because i've started an intergrated asignment in school and i really am kind of stuck on it!

GCSE integrated assignment? Don't really have to modulate....
There are lots of different ways to compose. This is mine.
Composing for christmas though, think of all the things that'd represent christmas. Something twinkly like ice, such as glocks played high, handbells or chimes would be nice. I'd go for an easy key, if I were you, C major, G major, F major etc. Then get a chord sequence, and go from there.
