Edinburgh P1s: 22 adorable class photos capturing Edinburgh pupils' first days at school

The end of 2025 is getting closer but this year will always be remembered by hundreds of youngsters across Edinburgh as the year they finally started school.

Little ones across Edinburgh donned their school uniforms for the first time in August as they made the milestone move into Primary 1.

And to mark the occasion, our photographers visited schools across the city to capture pupils’ first ever class photos.

The photos were published in a special souvenir supplement in October and now we’re taking a look at them in a series of online galleries.

Scroll through our gallery to see our latest Primary 1 photo gallery and see if you can spot anyone you know.
