More than 100 kids from St Michael’s Primary, Braehead Primary and St Peter’s Primary all participated in workshops to create maps which will become part of the décor in the new space.
Creative school pupils in Dumbarton will have their artwork showcased as part of the design of a new children’s library being built at Glencairn House.
And their handiwork will be joined together to create a giant map which will be included in the standalone children’s library being erected at the rear of the historic building. “With the refurbishment of Dumbarton’s oldest building breathing new life into the High Street, it’s a great time to look to the future.
When complete, Glencairn House will be transformed, with the building overhauled into a state-of-the-art facility. The standalone children’s library pavilion will be created at the back of the building, opening out onto a library garden centred on the existing tree which will become the garden’s ‘storytelling tree’.
Thew new facility will, for the first time, enable access to the stored objects and documents in West Dunbartonshire’s heritage collections. It will also create new and exciting opportunities for the local community and visitors to the area to engage with, explore and learn more about the collections.
