THE end of the summer means back to school for youngsters across Gwent.
But for some it's the first time ever they'll walk through the school gates.
The first day at school is a special day for every family, and what better way to celebrate than with a photograph?
We asked schools around Torfaen to send in photos of reception classes on their first days - and you can see them all below.
We've already published some of the photos sent in - click here to see them - and we have plenty more pictures from around Gwent to come - so watch this space!
