Whether they went to Grade 1 or are only preparing for the “big school”, these youngsters are ready for more than a decade of education ahead of them.
These are some of the little ones who started schooling today, and whose parents entered them for the Herald My First School Day competition.
The photos of all the entrants so far will go onto another webpage later the week.
In order to enter just send a photo of your child on their first school day, with their name and the name of their school, to adele@mooivaal.co.za
You can also send the photo via WhatsApp to 061 529 0836.
Proud parents and relatives can send photos in until Monday 29 January.
