Your Voice, Your Neighbourhood Centre: Envisioning the Concept

On February 25, 2016, the Board of Education and the City of Maple Ridge hosted a joint Open House at Samuel Robertson Technical. At the Open House, the Board and the City presented drawings of the preferred plans for the potential elementary school, a neighbourhood learning centre housed within the school, and a potential community centre in the Albion area of Maple Ridge.
