PHOTOS: Goodbye to the Class of 2023 in schools across Louth (Part 1 gallery)

Summer holidays means the end of the school year, but for Sixth Class pupils it's also the end of their time at primary school.

As local Sixth Class pupils prepare to start on a new adventure we capture their special moment with our special gallery of class photos taken by our photographer Arthur Kinahan.

The Dundalk Democrat/Louth Live would like to congratulate the Class of 2023 and wish them lots of luck and fun on their new adventures.

A second gallery with more great class photos will follow on our website tomorrow.
