Browns Bay School has a growing roll (even with our school zone restrictions), and over the years there has been regular discussion with the Ministry of Education (MOE) Property Group on how to manage classroom space. This has been an ongoing issue since we converted the Technology suite back into the Room 12 classroom in 2014, we were then allocated Room 26, and then we converted our Resource Room into Room 13. These were stop-gap solutions to address a growing student roll as it occurred. The Board of Trustees has worked tirelessly over these past years to get the MOE to arrive at a permanent solution (a Master Plan) and this has now become a reality.
The Master Plan has the following goals:
Stage 1:
- 12 Classroom Block
- Driveway to Hall
- Relocation of Pool changing rooms.
- Relcation of Furniture Shed
Stage 2:
- Building of classroom
On March 1 2021 the construction of the first stage of a two storied classroom block with 12 classrooms was begun. Woodview Construction was contracted by the Ministry of Education for this build.
