A NURSERY in Halton Lodge was one of a select few that got the chance to make its mark alongside some of the world's best artists.

Children from Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery took part in the project celebrating National Sure Start Month.

Using their hands to create their part of the masterpiece, the toddlers joined other young artists from across the country in making the largest ever handprint picture.

The 16 enormous canvas panels link up together to make the painting and took 1,000 pairs of hand to finish.

The artwork is on display at the Tate Modern gallery in London.
