September marked the start of an exciting time for children across Calderdale as they began their school journey.

Here are 31 pictures of new starters from primary schools across Calderdale.

This is part one of our two part school starters special. Check back on Monday (October 19) from 6am for part two.

*Pick up a copy of this week’s Halifax Courier for our school starters special*

We will not be able to sell copies of the pictures as they were provided by the schools.
