We've been enjoying our playground everyday and remain so grateful to the Provincial Government for helping fund the project in 2018. We are also thankful for the hard working volunteers who helped with the construction, including our PAC, school staff, members of the North Fraser Fire Dept and Sasquatch Lions Club. We couldn't have done it without you!

We Love our Outdoor Classroom!

Here's a snapshot of our outdoor classroom structure and bridge. The bridge serves as a great viewing platform for students to see the stream and connects to our learning trails. Our outdoor structure offers a protected area for students to gather for year-round instruction regardless of the weather. A special thank you to Lacey Construction and their amazing crew for building us such a spectacular structure! Thanks also to Tom Cassel & Ian Kerr (TW Excavating) for the bridge work.
