A local school group is raising money to ensure all kids have a place to play.
Hillview Elementary Parent Advisory Council (PAC) is running a 50/50 Raffle to raise money for a new accessible playground at the school.
The PAC said Hillview “supports many students with diverse learning and accessibility needs, yet the school currently has no accessible playground equipment and no accessible pathways to existing play spaces.”
It also stated the provincial government distributes funds for accessible playgrounds through Playground Equipment Program grants, but those are prioritized based on the school’s size and need, and the PAC estimated it would be between five and seven years before Hillview would be eligible.
