St John’s Preparatory School welcomed the Grade 1s of 2020 with open arms.
It must be an early start for these little ones as they woke up bright and early to begin Grade 1.
It is indeed a busy day for the Rosebank Killarney Gazette team as the newsroom is buzzing with stories about excited and sometimes nervous Grade 1s.
Journalist Sarah Koning visited the school in Houghton Estate to capture some memories.
