Councillor Archie Graham, chairman of Glasgow Life, said: “Reunion Day offers a wonderful opportunity to stop and chat about the good old days.
"What is it they say about school being the best days of your life?
"As well as former pupils of Scotland Street, we are also keen to encourage alumni of other schools in the local area to come along, meet old friends and new and spend some time looking at photographs of Glasgow past that will hopefully bring back some happy memories.”
Previous reunion days have attracted more than 100 ex-pupils from Glasgow and beyond.
