Santa made the stop as part of the Evening News and Lothian Buses Christmas Appeal to raise money for the Sick Kids Friends Foundation.

If you missed out at the weekend, you can still catch up with Santa before he makes his way across the world on Christmas Eve, by visiting him today at Murrayburn School from 1.15pm to 2.15pm.

There will be another opportunity tomorrow too, as he will be stopping off at the Wester Hailes Education Centre from 11.30am to 12.30pm.
