As families prepare to send kids back to school in September, new schools and additions are opening in several growing communities, with thousands more spaces under construction throughout British Columbia.
“We’ve been working hard to build and deliver new schools to meet the needs of students now and in the future,” said Bowinn Ma, Minister of Infrastructure. “Our historic investments in school infrastructure are already making a meaningful difference for B.C. students, and we look forward to welcoming young learners into even more brand-new classrooms this fall.”
In Langford, one of the province’s fastest-growing cities, the new SĆIȺNEW̱ SṮEȽIṮḴEȽ Elementary school is set to open its doors. This school adds 480 seats for students in kindergarten through Grade 5 and will help meet long-term enrolment needs.
“Langford is a great place to call home, and I am thrilled to see the new SĆIȺNEW̱ SṮEȽIṮḴEȽ Elementary school opening for students,” said Ravi Parmar, MLA for Langford-Highlands. “I can’t wait to see the halls filled with laughter, backpacks on the hooks and the start of new memories for the students.”
In Trail, the new Glenmerry Elementary is a full replacement school built at expanded capacity, adding 165 new student seats and increasing total capacity from 270 to 435 seats.
