Back to School!

21 August 2018

It's that time of the year again....school's back! We have the world’s cutest #SmallCityGallery for you all to ooohhh and ahhhhh over.

Last week pupils returned to their classes, and a whole new crop of children took off for their very first days of primary and secondary school, ready to start their journey in education.

Is it just us, or do the Primary Ones just get cuter each year?  Happy wee faces, all smiles and summer freckles peer over shirt collars stiff with newness.  Long socks, big school bags and shiny, shiny shoes are a sure sign of the first day at big school!

We've been overwhelmed by all of the proud mums and dads who sent us photographs of their wee ones heading off to start their first day in primary one.  From Abernethy to Perth city centre, the rows of wee people are enough to reduce even the toughest among us to tears.

Can you remember your first day at school?

“Summer is over, Autumn is here

Back to school for a brand new year!

Pack your things, on the bus you go,

Make new friends and say hello!

Reading, writing, learning more

Than you ever did before”

Thanks to everyone who shared their images with us; we've loved seeing your gorgeous kids embarking on their big school adventure.

Gallery Photographers

Thanks to all the proud mums, dads, grannies, grandads, aunties and uncles for sending in their pictures of all these super cute kids starting primary or secondary school. We've loved seeing all your pictures and hope you all have the best year at school!
