Balfron Primary is an active, welcoming and vibrant learning community. We have high aspirations for all and want learners to be the best they can be.
Balfron Primary School serves the village of Balfron and the surrounding rural area. The present building was opened in 1981 to replace the old local primary school. A three classroom extension and nursery was completed in September 2003.
The school is also part of the High School Campus and we are able to enjoy access to some of the facilities. Children take school dinner in the Atrium dining room of the High School, or packed lunches from home in the primary school.
We have varied and extensive grounds developed in partnership with parents and children and supported by the Parent Council and the community. This includes the playground, trim trail, woods, planet garden and access to the High School running track.
