HUNDREDS of Leader readers have shared their first day and back to school photos.

We put out a batch yesterday but there were simply so many, and all lovely, that we've gone and done it again.

Did you miss? Back to school gallery #1

Thanks so much for taking the time to share the moment.

We also asked parents how that first day had gone...

Kimberley O'Brien: "My three 12-years-olds enjoyed the first day of being in Year 8 and my five-year-old couldn't wait to go to his new school to start Year 1, he's been asking since he woke up at 6.30am, and he enjoyed every minute."

Rachel Logan: "My son, Max, came home with ink splattered all over his new uniform. He had a fight with a fountain pen and the pen won!"

Julie Davies: "All mine came home all smiles and absolutely shattered."
