IT’S a big day, one that’s been in the calendar for months – your child’s first day at school.

Lots of children across St Helens will be walking into the classroom for the first time today as they start their academic journey.

Has your child started reception? Was today their first day at school?

We want you to share photos of your child’s first day in reception and we will share a selection online and in the St Helens Star.

Share your photos using the link below but please make sure the photographs only show your own child and the images haven’t been filtered or had any stickers or emojis added.
