Construction on New Gitwinksihlkw Elementary School Gym Expected to Wrap in About a Year, Bringing On-Site Gym Access for the First Time

Students at Gitwinksihlkw Elementary will have access to a new gym around this time next year, with construction now underway.

With no facility on site, students have had to make the trek to the Ts’oohl Ts’ap Memorial Centre for gym classes for the past 27 years.

But, with construction on the nearly 6,000 square foot facility expected to wrap up next Fall, that tradition will soon be in the rearview.

Once completed, the facility will also be open for use in community events and activities when required.
