Dear Parents/Guardians,

Surrey Schools is excited about the opening of two brand new elementary schools in the South Surrey community.

Site 180, located at 17325 2nd Avenue, and Site 206, located at 16666 23rd Avenue, are scheduled to open in September 2021.

These beautiful new facilities will provide inviting and engaging learning environments for students and serve as hubs for the evolving South Surrey community. These two new elementary schools will also relieve the enrolment pressures at Sunnyside, Pacific Heights and Hall’s Prairie elementary schools.

As part of the process for opening new schools, the School District establishes catchment boundaries. Boundary reviews will include the East Kensington, Hall’s Prairie, Morgan, Pacific Heights, Rosemary Heights and Sunnyside communities.

As parents and guardians living in the South Surrey community, the School District is inviting your input and feedback on catchment boundary options. The School District is coordinating a consultation process in early November so you can easily contribute your views and suggestions.

In early November, please watch for further information being sent home. A dedicated website will be available for information and comments at this time.

In addition, evening forums will be held in mid-November for South Surrey-area school communities to share their feedback and ideas about the potential boundary changes. Times and locations of the consultation forums will be included in the early November information package that will be sent home.

The consultation concludes December 18th. Community contributions and comments will be summarized by staff in a report to the superintendent, which will be presented to the Board of Education in the spring. Please feel free to share your input and suggestions during the consultation process.

Surrey Schools look forward to hearing from you.
