Pupils from the Bilingual Primary School took part in a ceremony at their new site on the edge of Hove Park today (Friday 27 March).
They signed their names on one of the beams at the site in the Droveway watched by staff, parents and supporters.
The children spoke in Spanish to thank those involved in the project, including staff with construction company Kier.
Interim head Laura O’Grady thanked all those involved in the project and said that the new premises symbolised hard work and promise.
She thanked the Brighton Aldridge Community Academy (BACA) in Falmer which has provided a temporary home since the opening of the Bilingual Primary School in September 2012.
She also paid tribute to the parents who had been so determined to give their children the advantages of a bilingual education.
