RETRO REPORTER: School days begin for local pupils

It’s almost a right of passage that the district’s P1 pupils have their first class photos appear in the Newry Reporter.

It’s a tradition which goes back years, and one which we hope to continue later this year!

In the meantime we’ve gone back through the archives and found a few pictures. So, if you (or your kids, or your grandkids) were starting primary school back in 2008 you might well feature in our gallery!
