The first day of school brings a mix of emotions, from nerves to excitement, for both children and their families.
It is a momentous occasion that leaves a lasting impression. To commemorate this milestone, schools throughout the district have shared photographs of their reception pupils starting school in 2026.
Don’t forget to pick up a copy of this week’s Wakefield Express paper (November 12) for a special school starter supplement.
