The new Holy Trinity Primary has been built on Newdyke Road in Kirkintilloch.
It is the third school to be developed through the council's £48m Primary School Improvement Programme (PSIP) with its development partner hub West Scotland.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Depute Provost Pews said: "Feedback from staff and pupils who have been in the school for a few weeks now has been overwhelmingly positive. It is easy to understand why when you look around the fantastic building with its excellent resources.

Holy Trinity Primary School represents an £8.7m investment in the education of local young people and includes funding from the Scotland’s Schools for the Future programme.
"Its design supports delivery of Curriculum for Excellence and is somewhat different to the primary school buildings we are all used to. The open plan areas, the outdoor spaces, the multi-purpose hall – these features enhance the learning experience for all the children who attend here.
"The school also boasts the very latest in technology with the inclusion of LCD touchscreens as well as Wi-Fi throughout the building. Again, very different to the schools may of us attended in our youth."
Chief Executive Officer of hub West Scotland, Iain Marley, said: "Holy Trinity School is a striking bespoke design, successfully delivered on time for our partners East Dunbartonshire Council. hWS have completed four schools through the partnership with the council and look forward to continuing the positive relationship."
