New Waterdown Elementary School Floor Plans

We are excited that the New Waterdown Elementary School is moving forward. The new school will be built in the Mountainview Heights neighbourhood and will be located at the intersection of Skinner Road and Great Falls Boulevard. The new school will create 504 new student spaces for children in Kindergarten to Grade 8, and will include a new 88-space child care centre with two preschool rooms, two toddler rooms, and an infant room. The anticipated date of opening is the 2027-2028 school year. This project is under construction. Please see some details below and watch for opportunities to learn more.

This investment of  $24.5 million in provincial funding from the Government of Ontario helps to ensure that students and families in Waterdown have access to modern, spacious learning environments.
