Schools and education paramount as we move forward from pandemic

By MPP Toby Barrett

To The Haldimand Press

As a government, we must ensure our youngest learners have a great place close to home to start their education journey.

Over the past few years, areas of Haldimand-Norfolk have greatly expanded, for example Caledonia where many families, especially from the 905 area code, are attracted to the ‘Grand’ community. Caledonia has lots to offer young families including a great downtown, access to a plethora of health and recreational opportunities, as well as outdoor adventures along the Grand. While a growing population can be healthy and is good for the local economy, it does place pressure on school capacity.
