Request for Photo
"My cousin. Norma Tandy (née
Fairbairn) wondered if anyone had school photographs of
Bruntsfield primary School from around 1954-56. She
was born and still lives in South Africa, but attended school in
Scotland for a couple of years. Her Grandmother lived in
Tarvit Street

"I went to Castlehill

I've never seen a group photo
that I'm in. I don't think we could afford to buy them when
we were at the school."

School Photos
"I'm attempting to encourage any John
Watson's School Former Pupils to upload school photos to out newly created
Facebook page. It's like drawing hens' teeth.
Can you point me in the right
direction? I am trying to find out who the Official School
Photographers were. Any ideas?"

a link to some
Edinburgh School

not added to the EdinPhoto web site
It can sometimes take me a long time to add class
photos to the web site so I've not added all the photos that I've received.
However, the ones not added have been listed here, in
case they include any that might be of particular interest to anybody. |
