Moray Primary School Expands With New Classroom Modules

A primary school in Moray has expanded with the installation of 17 pre-fabricated classroom modules, it has been announced.

Two extra classrooms and a new nursery have been added to Seafield Primary in Elgin.

The new modules were added in the space of 24 hours due to advanced planning and site preparation.

The work is part of a £17m refurbishment programme of four primary schools; Seafield Primary in Elgin, Applegrove in Forres, Millbank in Buckie and St Gerardine in Lossiemouth.


The programme has been funded by a £10m grant from the Scottish Government, with the rest being provided by the council.

The contract for the works has been awarded to Galliford Try, the parent company of Morrison Construction.

The site was prepared for the installation during the last few weeks, with the delivery and fitting planned for school half term to minimise disruption.

The buildings will be in use from January 2016 when refurbishment works on the existing nursery building will begin.
