It is a new academic year and grade one’s are starting school for the first time. Parents did not shy away from social media and posted their little one’s excitement as they accompanied them to school this morning.
Here are some of the pictures of parents and their children in various schools around the country.

My boy Daniel Kgosi Maimane starts school day.
Wishing all Gr1 parents great success. Our children start a new chapter. Filled with hope for a future where dreams can be fulfilled. I want to live in an SA where children can have teachers who work hard, and equal opportunities. pic.twitter.com/Oi93WrjgwE
