Speaking during a visit to the school, Cllr Jim Paterson said: "It was great to visit the pupils and teachers from St Fergus Primary School and see how much they are enjoying their new school.
"The new school will help support the future of our children and young people by providing the best possible environment for them to learn and keep them engaged."
The school was also presented with a Secure by Design (SBD) Awards by Chief Inspector Martin Gallagher, KA (Paisley) area commander and Constable Craig Geddes, Architectural Liaison Officer from Police Scotland during the visit.
SBD is a national police initiative that aims to reduce the opportunity for crime in the built environment, ensuring the school has met approved security standards that have been developed to address criminal acts such as anti-social behaviour, vandalism and break-ins.
