The first day at school is a big deal in a child's life

The first day at school is a momentous occasion, and to mark the beginning of the academic journey for the children who started school in September the Shropshire Star will publish a special photo supplement within the paper on Tuesday October 15.

All local primary schools are invited to register and submit their Reception Class photographs for inclusion in this commemorative edition.

Registration and submission of photographs is free, and schools have until Friday, September 20 to secure their spot.

Parents and family members will have the chance to pre-order copies ahead of publication and the copies will be delivered to the child’s school on the day of publication, making the delivery for the keepsake edition of the Shropshire Star even more memorable.

Make sure your school is part of te Shropshire Star picture special
