Two new primary schools have been opened in East Dunbartonshire.

Children from the former Auchinairn and Woodhill Primaries have now moved into the new £12.4 million Thomas Muir Primary in Bishopbriggs, with pre-schoolers moving into the adjoining Cleddens Early Learning & Childcare Centre (CEL&CC).

Elsewhere, pupils from the former St. Agatha's and St. Flannan's Primaries have relocated to the new £8.7m Holy Trinity Primary in Kirkintilloch.

Each of the new schools feature Wi-Fi throughout, classrooms with LCD touchscreens, open and airy corridors, multi-purpose halls, covered outdoor learning areas, comfortable dining spaces and modern, bright décor.

The council's Chief Education Officer, Jacqui MacDonald, said: "These are fantastic buildings and it was wonderful to see the children making them their own. As I walked through the schools I could see young people making use of all the different learning spaces and thoroughly enjoying getting used to the new building."

Both schools and the CEL&CC were delivered through the Council's Primary School Improvement Programme in partnership with hub West Scotland.
