Many children across Northampton will be primary school pupils for the last time in the coming weeks.
As the 10 and 11 year olds prepare for the move to secondary school, parents are often left emotional about their little ones growing up ‘too fast’.
And what better way to mark the momentous occasion than to see your pride and joy in the paper alongside their classmates?
In June, Chronicle & Echo ran a print feature of photos of Year 6 leavers classes, supplied by schools. Now the feature has been turned into an online gallery.
Below are 23 pictures of primary school classes leaving Year 6 across Northampton.
