SIC's Director of Children's Services, Helen Budge, said: "A key part of the new Anderson High School project is ensuring people are kept up to date on how plans are progressing.

"I hope that as many people can come along to our second event, ask questions and see how the proposals are developing."

The event will be held tomorrow (4 February) at Islesburgh Community Centre (Room 12) from 2pm to 8pm.
