• Castlehill Primary School, Bearsden


• Baljaffray Primary School, Bearsden

• Clober Primary School, Milngavie

• Craigdhu Primary School Milngavie

The pitch at Castlehill was officially opened by Provost Alan Brown, who was joined by Partick Thistle's Youth Academy Head, Gerry Britton, and Kingsley the Partick Thistle mascot.

Provost Brown said: "I am really pleased that this multi-purpose outdoor facility will be available to the other schools with dated blaes pitches in the near future – it will greatly enhance outdoor physical education for our young people."
