An £18 million super-school boasting state-of-the-art facilities has officially opened its doors to pupils.
The 'Prestwick North Educational Campus' welcomed kids from Glenburn and St Ninian's primaries on Wednesday.
The campus, which is spread over two storeys, brings together the two schools and boasts 22 classrooms, alongside a new early years centre and nursery.
A sports hall, all-weather pitch and new gardens are also part of the ambitious project, which runs purely on electric power, with roof solar panels and air source heat pumps.
The remaining demolition work of the old Glenburn school building and landscaping is due to be complete in the spring of next year.
Councillor Stephen Ferry, South Ayrshire Council’s education spokesman, said: “We’re committed to providing children and young people with the best possible start in life and I’m delighted pupils have now set foot into their brand-new schools after what I’m sure felt like a long wait for them.
“Prestwick North Educational Campus will provide a modern and engaging environment for learning, and will ensure pupils can thrive throughout their years at school.
"We’re continuing the transformation of learning in South Ayrshire with our school build programme, and I know that both schools will benefit from the shared provision.
“I’d like to extend my thanks to everyone involved in making this project a huge success, and wish all of the children, teachers and school staff good luck for the year ahead.”
An official opening event for the campus, which was delivered in partnership with hub South-West Scotland and main contractor Morgan Sindall, will take place at a later date.
