Harvey Price delighted followers as he showed off his heartfelt letter to Santa in an Instagram post on Thursday.
In one snap, the son of Katie Price, 22, could be seen proudly holding up his letter which revealed his college triumphs.
Harvey is blind, autistic, has septo-optic dysplasia, a learning disability, and is one of the 2,000 people in the UK with Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder.
His sweet letter read: 'Dear Santa, my name is Harvey Price. I am 22 years old, my birthday is 27th May.
'I have been doing really good work in National Star College. This week I swam 10 laps in my swim session.
'I have been really trying to use my words, Santa. I hope this makes you so proud.
'As I have been so good this year at National Star College can Harvey Price please have extra presents. Love you Santa. From Harvey Price.'

The son of Katie Price, 22, proudly shared with Santa and his followers his recent college triumphs
The post - shared with Twinkl Resources lessons plans - was captioned: 'My letter to Santa (Santa emoji)'.
He is being supported at the residential National Star College in Gloucester, but Katie revealed in March that she was being forced to pull him out because 'West Sussex Council wouldn't fund him' at a college too far from where she lives.
Katie has spoken publicly about trying to secure Harvey funding for the college as she battles with hundreds of thousands of pounds in outstanding tax bills.
In June, the mother-of-five revealed she fears that her son - whose father is former footballer Dwight York - will be moved into social care.
Katie was Harvey primary caregiver until he turned 19. Since 2021, he's been living independently at the specialist further education institute National Star College.
For Harvey to attend the residential college, it relies on much administration and the local authority agreeing to finance it.
The college puts in a funding application to Katie's local authority which details everything they are going to provide for Harvey. For all-year round residential care, this can be up to £300,000 to £350,000 a year.
The decision is made by the local authority who decide whether to fund it or pick somewhere more local. Katie has to ensure his Education Health and Care Plan (ECHP) - a legally binding document detailing his required support - is up to date.

Harvey's post comes after it was reported earlier this week that Katie's nine-bedroom Mucky Mansion is potentially being sold for a fraction of the listing price.
The glamour model, 46, has finally found a buyer for the rundown £1.5million home after she slashed the price of the property a second time.
Katie, who was evicted for not paying the mortgage, lowered the listing to £1.35million in October after already failing to sell it for the original asking price.
It is now being snapped up for £1.15million, a stark contrast to the figure Katie thought the Sussex mansion was worth.
A public notice on Rightmove states: 'Mortgagees in possession are now in receipt of an offer for the sum of £1,150,000.'
Nonetheless, Katie won't see a penny for the sale as it will be swallowed up by the debts she previously ran up against the Sussex home.
When the home was first listed, a brochure told potential buyers not to fall into Katie's empty pool and also warned the land could be contaminated by waste.
An online advert said the pad could be flipped into an 'impressive family house' after refurbishment.

Making no mention of its famous former owner, the ad described the property as: 'A substantial detached family home including three reception rooms, nine bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms spread over three floors plus a one-bedroom annexe.'
Bailiffs evicted the star and her family from their West Sussex home in May after she failed to keep up payments on the monthly mortgage.
The former model had paid £1.35m for the property in 2014 from former Tory peer Francis Maude and it featured in a Channel Four series as she attempted to renovate the house.
When she moved out she claimed the house was 'cursed'.
Talking about Mucky Mansion she said: 'I've had nothing but bad memories in that house', and insisted moving will be the start of a new chapter in her life.'
Contract cleaners were brought in to clear away the piles of rubbish and spruce up the property before it was put on the market by local estate agents HJ Burt.
