Craigmillar Children
"We have over 400 pictures of schools, classes, football and hockey teams,
first communions and even teachers from the 1930s onwards - many of them
donated by local people and former residents who have long-since left the
area.
But who are, or were, these pupils, children, teachers? Are they the
parents and grandparents of Craigmillar schoolchildren of today?"

More Photos
The
Exhibition was a success. There were many visitors, some of them
bringing more photos with them. Another four hundred old photos were
added to the Craigmillar Community
Arts Collection during the exhibition.
