Midlothian Council is seeking views over how to use extra space at a new joint campus development in the region.

The new Bonnyrigg facility is being built on the former Hopefield site and will accommodate St Mary’s Primary School and provide additional capacity for Burnbrae once completed.

A number of options have been drawn up to use extra space which will be left over once the development is finished.

The first option would see the space used for nursery and primary 1 pupils from Burnbrae, while the second involves accommodating Primary 5, 6 and 7 in the building.

The third option would see a single stream established at Hopefield so pupils would be there from nursery right up until the end of P7. Local people can also suggest their own model of how to use the building.

Residents have until noon on Friday, 31 March to submit their feedback. The gathered information will help inform initial design studies, as well as assist in developing a draft site plan for the proposed building.
