From teaching life skills and creating cherished memories to offering comfort and support, our mums have been there for us throughout our lives.

Even our littlest community members share this deep appreciation for their mums.

The Free Press went to Kyabram P-12 and Shine Bright Tongala kindergartens and asked some of the children what their favourite thing was about their mums.
