It’s been a week of first-day nerves for children and parents alike.
Little ones grasping at fingers, teary in their shiny new uniforms. Or maybe more confident, ready to roll and excited to be “all grown up”.
However it went down, these Aussie icons have felt the love and the pride and the touch-of-pain that comes with sending children off to school for the first time.
Singer songwriter Guy Sebastian admitted he got a little teary when his four-year-old son Hudson James went off to school.
“I can’t believe this tiny little angel started school today,” he posted to Instagram. “A small chapter over and a whole new one has begun I may or may not have sprung a little leak. Go Hudson James!”
