COLOURFUL reminders of this year's Bolton in Bloom competition have been created by these artistic youngsters.

They are all winners in the Bolton in Bloom colouring competition sponsored by the council's People and Places programme, the Bolton Evening News and the Copyplan Group.

The winner in the four to six year-old category was Amy Classen, of Wingates St John's CE Primary School, Westhoughton.

The winner in the seven to nine year-old category was Claire Jones, of St Matthew's CE Primary School, Bolton, and the 10 to 11 year-old section: Rukaiya Aya, of Pikes Lane County Primary School, Deane.

The three winning schools each receive a cheque for £50 from the People and Places programme and the winners receive a £10 voucher sponsored by the Copyplan Art Company Group, of Bradshawgate, Bolton.
