We delved into the Shield Gazette archives to find 10 nostalgic images from kindergartens across the borough.
If your little one went to Westoe, Cleadon, Bede Burn, Victoria, or Nursery Time, there’s a chance they could be in our spotlight on the past.
We have graduation scenes, dress-up day and lots more besides. Join us on a trip into the past.
