Pupils watch as their new school is constructed.

Arbroath primary pupils have been given a sneak preview of their £4.2 million school as it nears the final stages of construction.

They joined head teacher Jacqui Smith on a tour of Timmergreens primary, scheduled for completion in May.

Robertson site support coordinator Jane Elder said: “We are very keen to engage with young people and the Timmergreens pupils have been able to see the project at each stage of the construction process.

“They have spoken with a wide variety of experts working on the build to learn about the skills involved in the building their school, taking lots of notes and feeding back to their classmates.”

The school will cater for 220 pupils, with facilities to include a games hall available for use by the local community.

The Timmergreens project forms the first phase of Angus Council’s major investment programme to upgrade Arbroath’s primary schools.

Gary Bushnell, chief executive, hub East Central Scotland, said: “This is an important project for the local community in Arbroath and Robertson has worked hard to include pupils and teachers in the development of their new school.”

Timmergreens head teacher Jacqui Smith added: “We have had a very positive partnership with Robertson, who have engaged the pupils in the process at all stages of the project and provided activities that have been suitable for all ages and stages across the school.
