The new building will be the new home of the school’s PE department. It will have a four-court sports hall, gym hall, dance studio and fitness suite.

Education Convener Councillor Ian Perry said: “It’s great news that these plans have been approved today as the school and wider local community are really going to benefit from these purpose-built sport and outdoor centre buildings.

“The new sports venue will boast a four-court hall, gym hall, dance studio and fitness suite and although it will primarily be used by Trinity Academy for school PE, wider community groups will also have access to the facilities.”
