The Ulmer Family Light Lab

This groundbreaking space designed specifically for children in Nursery to Grade five opened on October 21, 2016.

As Principal Kelly Bird remarked at the Ulmer Family Light Lab ribbon-cutting, "Friends, with these spaces and these tools, there is no limit to the effect you can have on this world."
