Craigiebarns opened in 1970 and is located at the end of Brington Road, sitting adjacent to Craigie High School and Dundee and Angus College.  The school is located within the Craigiebank area of Dundee, which falls between the centre of the city and Broughty Ferry.   

It is a single storey building, surrounded by large playing areas of grass, woodlands as well as a maintained tarmac playground, which features a small multi-purpose sports pitch.
