The Little Learning Spaces project makes its 2025 return at two school locations, Lewiston Elementary on Thursday, April 3rd or Van Duzen Elementary School on Thursday, April 10th.   This successful project brings together community partners to provide information and resources to families of young children around multiple subjects like water safety, child care and developmental supports.   If your child attends either one of these schools, please check with your school office staff regarding details and more information. 

We’re excited to offer these opportunities to our families, students, and communities, providing valuable information and resources to support learning and strengthen our communal health and resilience!
