Proms in pictures: Robert Gordon’s College Graduation 2022

Robert Gordon College's Class of 2022.
On a sunny afternoon in Aberdeen, friends and family celebrated the Robert Gordon College's Class of 2022.

At the Robert Gordon’s College graduation celebration, family and friends ushered the Class of 2022 into a bright future.

Schools across the north and north-east have been waving goodbye to the Class of 2022 in style. After the end of Covid-19 restrictions, the return to normalcy also ushered in the return of Leaver’s Balls, proms and graduation celebrations.

Last week, we took you behind the scenes for the Gordonstoun School Leavers’ Ball, held at the school’s stunning Elgin campus.

We also had a look under the tent at Grantown Grammar School’s senior dance.

Today’s gallery is all about the students and their achievements. On a sunny afternoon in Aberdeen, Robert Gordon’s College paid tribute to the Class of 2022.

Flourishing their crisp new diplomas and eager to start their next chapters – but not before a well-deserved summer break – the graduates soaked up the high school sun one last time as a class.
