Education Minister Cliff Cullen announced on Thursday that the Manitoba government will be setting aside more than $24 million for seven future land acquisition projects, which includes two new school sites in the Brandon area.
During an afternoon news conference on education infrastructure, Cullen stated that these projects involve a K-8 and K-12 facility, with the latter being a school under the jurisdiction of Division Scolaire Franco-Manitobaine.
Outside of Brandon, Cullen also mentioned that this funding will be used to build new facilities in the Louis Riel, River East Transcona, Seven Oaks and Pembina Trails school divisions, all located in Winnipeg.
