A sod-turning ceremony for the new expansion at Ste. Margarite Bourgeoys is expected to take place in the fall.
Phylis Eikre is the director of Education with the Kenora Catholic District
School Board and says they are just finalizing the plans for the six classroom addition.
She says they are also working on some contingency plans for students
who might be affected by construction work.
Eikre says SMB might lose some of its play-ground area during construction so they will be working with Pope John Paul to ensure students have a place to go for recess.
