We are excited to announce that NUQO Modular is partnering with West Vancouver Schools to help bring 116 new child care spaces to the community! 🌟   With the support of the ChildCareBC New Spaces Fund and in collaboration with the West Vancouver School District, we are contributing to the creation of the West Vancouver Schools Early Childhood Education Centre. This cutting-edge facility will offer crucial services for families, including infant-toddler care, preschool, and school-age programs.   This project reflects our unwavering commitment to building thriving, inclusive communities. By integrating culturally sensitive design and sustainable practices, we are ensuring that this new centre not only meets but exceeds environmental standards. We are honoured to play a role in a project that will have such a lasting impact on the community, particularly for working parents who will benefit from the convenience and support this centre will provide.   We look forward to bringing this vision to life and are proud to collaborate with West Vancouver Schools, Iredale Architecture, and other esteemed partners. Together, we’re creating spaces that nurture the growth and well-being of our youngest generations.   #CommunityDevelopment #ChildCare #SustainableBuilding #ProudlyIndigenous #NUQOmodular #newspacesfund #WestVancouverSchoolDistrict Rory Richards
