An interactive mobile museum which shares the story of the poppy arrived in Dumfries on Thursday.
Poppyscotland launched Bud in 2019 and it travels around the country to offer an understanding of the significance of remembrance and its importance to society.
On Thursday it stopped off at Dumfries High School, followed by the High Street and on Friday will be calling at St Joseph’s College.
Exhibits within the mobile museum include historical artefacts, interactive displays and the moving stories of veterans and their families who have been supported by Poppyscotland.
Visitors to Bud have the opportunity to make their own poppy using the same methods as the 34-stong team of disabled veterans at Lady Haig’s Poppy Factory in Edinburgh, who still hand-produce the five million poppies for the annual Scottish appeal.
Stuart Robb, chairman of the Royal Burgh of Dumfries Tattoo, said: “We arranged for PoppyScotland truck to attend two local secondary schools as it is important for students to be aware of what their ancestors done in relation to WW1, WW2 and all the other conflicts that British population carried out.
“It is also crucial to show the continuing relevance today.”
Since its launch Bud has travelled nearly 12,000 miles and visited 97 schools across Scotland.
