This elementary school is the one of the most energy efficient projects to be spearheaded by the Toronto District School Board in recent years. The footprint of the new school traces the path of the Rouge River, which used to run through the site before the surrounding suburban neighbourhood was developed. The interior is characterized by compelling spaces of learning and views to treed landscapes. This is a Certified LEED® Gold project.

“We are very satisfied with workmanship on all the projects that Aquicon has completed for this board.”

Hasan Abuyusuf, Project Supervisor, Toronto District School Board
