Elmdale Public School Construction Project Funding Approval
Trustees approved the funding for Elmdale Public School's addition. The total budget is $12,250,000. The funds will come form the Capital Priorities funding. School Condition Improvement funding. Facilities Renewal Program funding, and temporary Accommodation funding. Staff was authorized to proceed to tender with the project once Ministry approval is obtained. The Chair and Director were given authority to award the contracts to the successful bidder(s) so long as they are within the approved project budget.
February 21, 2019 – Update
I have received confirmation that our school hours will remain 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. while we are at Century next year. OSTA informs me that our students will travel on eight school busses. Estimated pick-up times will be approximately 8:25 a.m. at designated bus stops in our catchment area. End of the day drop offs are estimated to happen before 4:10 p.m. The more precise times, bus numbers and exact locations will be communicated to families in the summer.
I know many of you were waiting to hear these estimated bus times before setting up your before and after school care or to make other family plans. Susie Munro of Mothercraft will be in touch with Mothercraft families in the coming days to survey them and learn more about their needs for before and/or after school care. If you are a family who is new to Mothercraft, please do not hesitate to contact them at 613-798-2273 for information on their before and after school program that will take place at Hilson Public School next year.
