During rainy weather our playing field has to be closed due to health and safety concerns. This happens during a majority of the school year, eliminating the play and exercise space for students outside.
In May 2017 the PAC started a petition to the Vancouver School Board (VSB) to fix the drainage problem on our playing field.
Since then, there has been ongoing communication on the issue between the PAC chair and VSB which can be read below:
May 2017
- Letter sent to VSB along with petition from PAC.
June 2017
- VSB response from Diane Turner to PAC’s petition.
October 2017
- PAC response to at the VSB.
November 2017
December 2017
- On December 5 members of the VSB met with our PAC chair and Mr. Cannon on the field to discuss options.
- Parents at the December 6 PAC meeting passed a motion to use the PAC’s Pay It Forward fund towards the cost of field repairs.
- The PAC sent this letter to the VSB advising them of the motion.
