Work is continuing on a £21 million refurbishment project at four primary schools in Moray.

Seafield, Applegrove, St Gerardine and Millbank Primary Schools are each undergoing improvement works which will continue until spring 2017.

Features include new roofs, windows and doors, external insulation and completely modernised heating and electrical systems.


New and refurbished classroom accommodation will also being provided.

The council's Head of lifelong learning, culture and sport, Graham Jarvis, said: "These are major works that are going on but the schools have coped incredibly well and that is a credit to everyone involved – staff, pupils, parents and the workmen on site.

"There is still some way to go before the refurbishment is completed but when the work is finished I am sure that everyone will be impressed by their new look schools and arrangements will be made to allow parents to view the improved surroundings in which their children will be taught."
