As Alex says, wicket:child tags can't solve this because that's not the way they're intended to be used.
There are various ways to solve the problem, though: you could place the common content into a Panel, have a method on the base page return this panel, and then include it as normal on your child pages; or restructure your child pages so the "before" and "after" content exists in panels, have two abstract methods on the base page that return these panels, then the base page can obtain and add the content itself. I expect you could do something with fragments as well, but I haven't looked into them! Charlie.
