RUSSIAN ORTHODOX SCHOOL IN GLASGOW HAS MOVED TO A NEW BUILDING

This year Easter week was marked with a very important and a long-awaited event for the Russian School in Glasgow. The school has moved to a new building! It now occupies the premises of Glasgow Steiner School. B-class listed building (dating 1876, designed by John Burnet) attracts your attention with Gothic sharp shapes and typically Scottish captivating modesty. The school playground, which provides safe shelter from the outside noise and strangers, was at once appreciated by the children. The well-heated, light and comfortable classes are ideal for all age groups. The school is situated in the central part of Glasgow. It is easily accessible by public transport. It can be reached from Partick and SECC railway stations as well as Kelvinhall underground station. The nearest bus stops are outside Kelvingrove Art Gallery on Dumbarton Road. There is convenient parking outside the school for the owners of private transport. We hope you will manage to get to the classes on time.

The move was celebrated by the children’s Easter concert. The boys and girls of all ages took part in it. A good addition to the concert was shared tea afterwards.        

We wish our children, teachers and parents to succeed in achieving our mutual purpose –preserving Russian culture and education.

May God bless us!
