Swift Current-area students received good news today as Premier Brad Wall announced a major school renovation and five new schools in Saskatchewan, including a consolidated St. Patrick Elementary School and St. Joseph Middle School for Swift Current.
"This is the largest number of new schools announced in a single day in Saskatchewan history," Wall said. "These new facilities will improve the lives of roughly 2,900 students and will represent a total investment of $95 million when they are completed."
Two new schools will also be built in Saskatoon in the Willowgrove neighbourhood, along with a replacement school for École St. Thomas Elementary School in Lloydminster, a middle school in Warman and a major renovation to École St. Andrew Elementary School in Regina.
All six projects today enter the approval-in-principle stage and receive a total of $6 million dollars in government support to complete the preparation of detailed plans and specifications, which must be completed before construction can begin.
An additional $5 million is also being advanced to support facility maintenance projects ranging from roof and boiler replacements to structural repairs in seven communities including Churchbridge, Melfort, Loon Lake, Imperial, Rosthern, Swift Current and Lucky Lake. Regina and Saskatoon Public School Divisions will also receive additional financial support to complete facility audits.
Over the past two years, the Government of Saskatchewan has committed more than $300 million to move forward 28 major school capital projects and close to 400 additional, smaller projects in schools across the province. This represents a record high investment in school infrastructure over a two-year period and coincides with the first increase in provincial student enrolment in 17 years.
