All of these Sunderland and County Durham students would have been 12 and 13 years old when these Echo archive photos were taken.
Here is a chance to relive memories from Monkwearmouth in 2004, St Robert of Newminster in 2007, Biddick in 2008, and Southmoor School in 2009.
If that’s not enough, we have got Sandhill in 2003, Easington Community School in 2009 and St Bede’s RC in Peterlee in 2010.
What a class line-up. Take a look.
