The Board of Education for the Cowichan Valley School District, with partners Urban One Builders and HCMA Architecture + Design, have rescheduled the public unveiling of the new Cowichan Secondary School Design for Tuesday, December 14 at 4 pm.
This celebratory event will be the first time the public can hear directly from project builder, Urban One, and the design team at HCMA.
The Board of Education announced on Tuesday, November 2 that Urban One had been selected as the builder for the new project and HCMA Architecture + Design as the architecture firm.
The event was originally scheduled to take place from 5:30 pm until 7 pm on November 15th but had to be postponed due to the historic rains and subsequent floods and damage that affected Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland.
The event will comply with all Provincial Health Orders, meaning guests 12-years and older must show proof of vaccination and masks will be required indoors for everyone 5-years of age and over.
