Work is continuing on a new £22.5 million high school in the Scottish Borders.

The new Kelso High School is being built by Morrison Construction in partnership with Hub South East. Completion is scheduled for this autumn.

The video shows key areas of the school internally and externally, from the glassed floor to roof reception area and the light filled library, to the classrooms and outdoor pitches.

Other features include extensive sport facilities, as well as an eco-garden pond, orchard, allotment, outdoor classroom and arts and craft garden.

Richard Park, Hub South East's Operational Director said: "It's exciting to see the progress on site at Kelso. Our contractor Morrison Construction, and as its supply chain, is doing a great job and the building is really taking shape.

"We look forward to handing over the school to Scottish Borders Council in the autumn so pupils, staff and the local community can enjoy their new high quality facilities."

Martin Joyce, Scottish Borders Council's Service Director for Assets and Infrastructure, said: "We are pleased with the progress of the new school and look forward to the opening which will provide a first-class facility for pupils, staff and the Kelso community for years to come."
