AS schools return this week across York and the surrounding area, we've dipped into our online archive to find some great class photos of new starters to share with you.

The first day of school is a moment to be treasured.

If your child is starting school in York this week, we'd love for you to share their photo.

You can do so by clicking here - and we'll take care of the rest!

Our archive photos today span from 1997 right through to 2009.

Most of the children featured are around four or five years old. Today some will be 25! Hard to believe isn't it, when you look at how teeny they are photographed with their reception class.

Here is a list of the photos we are featuring today - do you recognise anyone in them?
