Princess to visit school

PRINCESS Alexandra is due to visit pupils at Colinton Primary School on Monday.

The Redford Place school is popular with the children of military personnel at Redford and Dreghorn Barracks – two venues which are also expected to receive a royal visit.

Princess Alexandra is the only daughter of the late Duke and Duchess of Kent. Her brothers are the present Duke of Kent and Prince Michael of Kent.

News of the visit comes after Princess Anne stunned staff at Valvona and Crolla on Elm Row with an unannounced visit earlier this month.
