A new £1.6m extension to a primary school in Aberdeen has been officially opened.

The development at Insch Primary School was unveiled during a ceremony on Friday, 20 November.

Work on the project started in March this year.

Morrison Construction carried out the works, which included four new classrooms, breakout spaces, staff/pupil toilets, entrance vestibule, circulation space, a small office and additional stores.


Provost Vernal, who unveiled a plaque to mark the occasion, said: "This project has allowed the school to gain modern new teaching spaces and move from temporary out-dated accommodation."

Councillor Allison Evison added: "A great deal of investment is taking place in Aberdeenshire’s school estate and Insch is one of a number of projects across the area taking place to provide high-quality learning spaces."
