Community School
@StrontianCSB
Strontian Community School Building Ltd is a Community Benefit Society that built a new school building for our kids - the first community-owned one in Scotland


Headteacher wanted for Strontian Primary School! (not immediately obvious from the job advert, which titles it Head Teacher (3-18), Ardnamurchan High School, but it definitely includes the primary school, which is a separate school & building). myjobscotland.gov.uk/councils/highl…


With Spring approaching we hope to do some tree planting around the grounds with the school children. We're looking to source some 1800mm x 600mm weldmesh tree guards for this. If anyone can donate some (or offer them at a reduced price) we'd be very grateful 🙏


"All we have done is take the somewhat controversial PFI model and turn it into a CFI model where either we don't make any profit or if we do make a profit that stays within the community.”


We are so chuffed to be shortlisted for @scotcivictrust award!! An Laimhrig was a huge island effort. Hours of community meetings to agree & plan it, then a build programme including Covid & some truly terrible weather. We love & are so very proud of our EPC A+ rated buildings.


A heads-up that our AGM will be held this year on Monday 30 October - formal notice will be issued by the Secretary shortly. But do you know what else makes this a particularly special day for us? Reply with your answers!

A big shout out for Ardnamurchan High School who came first equal in the Scottish Schools Geography quiz yesterday, but then lost the tie break. (But as the other school was a private one, I think we can claim the moral victory 😉)
