The crayons, pencils and paints have been out in classrooms across Medway.

It was all in preparation for our mammoth Mother’s Day celebrations in today’s paper.

Our annual supplement My Mum features hundreds of pictures from children aged four to seven. And what a talented lot they are.

The feature has proved to be a major feat of logistics with it appearing in every KM Group paper across Kent.

We wrote to all schools to invite them to take part and most did so enthusiastically, with pupils set the task of drawing their mother.

In total the KM Group has produced an incredible 360 pages, featuring nearly 16,000 pictures from 150 schools, of loving tributes ahead of Mothering Sunday this week.

The big question, of course – are you one of the thousands included? Find out inside.
