Steveston–London Secondary School recently held its official opening ceremonies with invited dignitaries and community members.  Heralded as the first school in Canada that will potentially be achieving Leed Gold status for adopting a high level of sustainable green building practices, the Honourable John Yap, Minister of State for Climate Action was present to recognize the achievement of the school and its staff and students.  Other invited guests included Richmond Centre M.L.A. Rob Howard and the Member of Parliament for Richmond, Alice Wong, City of Richmond councilors, members of the SLSS Alumni, Board of Education Trustees, senior school district administrators, current and former Steveston-London school administrators, staff and PAC members and Bill London, retired Richmond teacher and grandson of Charles E. London.  103009_100019_1.pngThe Board of Education chairperson Linda McPhail and Assistant Superintendent Cathy Thornicroft welcomed our guests and acted as the emcees. The school was represented at the ceremony by our PAC chairperson Sue Eder, Student Council president Martin Lay, our principal Jim Allison and the very talented Steveston-London choir and concert bands.

The school opened its doors to students back in September 2007 after going through extensive renovations and additions to amalgamate Steveston Secondary with London Secondary.  The school features a state-of-the-art science wing with two "super labs", a new library, theatre and performing arts area, gymnasium, offices, and counseling areas.  Many of the classrooms and shops were also updated as well.  Steveston–London Secondary is now one of our largest secondary schools in the Richmond School District.
