UKAEA Adds A Classroom To Reay Primary School
UKAEA Dounreay donated a portacabin to Reay
Primary School earlier this year. The portacabin is being used as
a 4th classroom as the school has increased in size and required a 4th
teacher. Prior to the portacabins instalment the Primary 7s were being
taught in the general purpose room that is used for PE, Art and Lunch.
 The portacabin is joined
to the school via a corridor which was installed by the Highland Council
and is now very much part of the school. Mrs Eileen Sutherland, Head
Teacher at Reay Primary School said "This has made a huge difference as
we now have a dedicated classroom for P7 pupils rather than a shared
area which previously meant the class had to move away from their desks
and out of the room every time it was needed by another class.
The new portacabin means that the
pupils have a quiet pleasant room in which to work." Pictured in
their new classroom are the P7 pupils with L to R: Eileen Sutherland,
Sandy Christie of Johnson Controls Ltd, Jacqueline Harrison and Norman
Harrison, Dounreay Director. The transportation of the portacabin from
Dounreay to Reay Primary School was arranged by Johnson Controls and
Simpsons Crane Hire provided the use of a crane to lift the portacabin
into position. Following the visit to the new classroom Mr and Mrs
Harrison were given a tour of the school and Mrs Harrison was presented
with a bouquet of flowers from one of the pupils. |
