Design technology teacher JP Murray spent a week’s holiday making the easel, designed to hold a plaque at the official opening of the school.

Former furniture designer JP used Scottish witch elm from sustainable woodland.

Woodwork is the teacher’s passion, and he added: “I have a lathe in my garage, and I’m out there most nights!”

The easel has now been handed over to East Renfrewshire council for use in VIP ceremonies and events.
