Isn’t the new Monifieth High School looking fantastic! We can’t wait to welcome teachers back on Monday and our young people starting at Monifieth High School on Thursday 21 August for the start of term.
Convener of Family, Education and Justice Committee, Cllr Heather Doran commented:
“It’s an exciting time as we get ready to open this wonderful new building next week. It will provide a fantastic environment for learning, and I know staff, young people and parents are all looking forward to the term ahead.”
All other young people (not going to Monifieth High School) start back on Tuesday 19 August.
Here’s to an exciting year ahead!
