The playground at Killarney School is coming up on end of life as set out by Calgary Board of Education (CBE) standards, so it will need to be replaced in the next couple of years.
And while we still have a couple of years to replace it, a new playground will cost upwards of $500,000 with no financial support from the CBE. The recently established Killarney School Playground Committee as part of the overall Killarney School Council has started to look at grants and other sources of funding to make this possible and this year's Killarney Annual Fundraiser will be an integral part of kickstarting this journey.
