Wayne Rooney may have been named as captain of the England football team last week, but this week his 4-year-old son has a new challenge of his own… starting school!

"The time is nearly here..... Kai starts reception this week!!! Big boy now!!" his mum Coleen tweeted.

The mum-of-2 might have been nervous about sending her eldest off to school for the first time – but she took pride in sending him out in a pristine uniform.

Just look at the shine on those shoes! We suspect a few games of football in the schoolyard will soon knock a few scuffs into them.

Dressed in his cap, blazer and shorts, Coleen was sure to take a picture to commemorate the special moment, especially as Dad Wayne was busy last night leading England to a 1-0 victory against Norway.
