The contest was organised by Stratford town councillor Cohl Warren-Howles for children in her Avenue ward.

The youngsters were asked to draw or paint an animal, or something from nature in the shape of an egg – with some fun Easter hampers to be won as prizes for their artistic efforts.

Cllr Warren-Howles said: “The response was amazing and the quality of the entries was egg-cellent. Deciding the winners was very difficult as there were so many wonderful creations to choose from – they were all so good.

“As a councillor I believe that involving young people with art and creativity is crucial to imagination and self-expression.
