More than 400 children took part in the Dundee primary schools athletics championships at Caird Park.

And we captured some of the highlights of the event on camera.

P6 and P7 pupils from across Dundee competed in events including the 100 metres, javelin and long jump at the Ronnie McIntosh Stadium.

It was the first time the event organised by Dundee Active Schools has been held since the pandemic struck.

Below our photographs, we also have the results from all the individual events.
