What a trolley-load of goodies.

The Journal's search for the Child of Year came to a climax at Tesco's Atherton store.

Pictured are the six winners - Bethany Boardman, Zachery Jones, Nathan Whyte, Shelley Felton, Lee Gregory and Charlotte Fletcher - with Journal editor Malcolm Ryding and his wife Barbara (left) who presented the prizes. They were joined by Atherton councillor Sue Loudon.

The event was sponsored by The Journal, Tesco and PandA Photographic Services of Atherton.
