Frankie Boyle and Fran Healy are also among the big names helping as 'staff dip into their own pockets' to buy class supplies.
Scotland's celebrity elite have come together for an inspirational primary school in one Glasgow's most deprived communities.
But they refuse to let this stand in the way of giving a first class education with a strong rights-respecting ethos, and a commitment to providing a caring and happy environment for every child. And in response parents, including Barry and Karla, have committed to raising upwards of £10,000 to help buy essential supplies and creative materials.
Garnetbank parent and Mogwai musician, Barry explained: "I’ve been on to everyone I know to donate something special to this important cause and they’ve all come through. Alan said: "I’ve always believed that education is power. But it should also be compassion. And Garnetbank Primary’s example of helping those in need in their neighbourhood is a great message to send to its pupils and the community in general.
Artist and Garnetbank mum Karla Black pointed out: "Garnetbank Primary is a truly special place with a rich and diverse pupil and staff population, an excellent approach to learning and a culture of respect and care for our children.
