2026 has seen thousands of Lancashire children reach another important milestone in their lives as they began their school journeys.
Each year we celebrate this major step by photographing primary school reception classes across the region - and this year we’ve captured 2,200 smiling faces across 111 classes.
Following last week’s free 24-page keepsake supplement in the Lancashire Post (Thursday, November 5), here we’re featuring all the reception class pictures from across the Preston area.
