SOUTH Ayrshire Council is looking for the views of the public on concept designs which showcase a new primary school and early years campus in Girvan.

The new campus, which would be built in front of the existing primary school, will feature sports pitches, outdoor play areas and accessible parking.

The old building will be demolished when the new campus opens.

The designs will be shown at two public drop-in sessions. Attendees will also be able to discuss the plans with the project team.

The sessions will take place at the current Girvan Primary School on Wesley Road on Wednesday, September 25 from 3pm to 8pm and Tuesday, October 22 from 3pm to 8pm.

Councillor Martin Kilbride, buildings, housing and environment portfolio holder, said: "The original school is around 70 years old and there’s a clear gulf between this school and the new schools that have been completed across South Ayrshire.

"Finalising the designs is an important milestone and I would encourage local people to engage with the consultation process.”

Anyone unable to attend the drop-in sessions can send their views in writing by October 18 to Service Lead, Professional Design Services, South Ayrshire Council, Wellington Square, Ayr, KA7 1DR or email pds@south-ayrshire.gov.uk.
