Back-to-school season

AS the new school term draws near, parents and guardians have been on a mission, shopping for back-to-school supplies for their children.

Booklists in hand, they can be seen in stores across the nation, hunting for the items to help their children start the year off right.

Newsday photographers visited stores in Port of Spain and Arima to capture the atmosphere of back-to-school season.
