Tots' first days at school as pictured in the Wigan Observer in 2009

Here's another timely reminder to families with youngsters in their first term of primary school to pick up the latest edition of the Wigan Observer because it features 20 pages of reception class pupils to treasure forever.

But first, here’s another journey back into the past with a selection of photographs that were taken of school starters for the paper back in 2009. Happy memories!
