For this week’s Bracknell Nostalgia, we will be looking at the fresh-faced pupils who started their educational journey way back in 1997.

When we were going through our archives, we found some photos of students posing for their first school pictures 24 years ago.

In a short blurb that was published in an old edition of the Bracknell News nearly a quarter of a century ago, it read: “Introducing the third in our series of the very classes of 1997.
