Vancouver’s first “stand-alone” and homogeneous French-language secondary school École secondaire Jules-Verne, located in the Oakridge neighbourhood of Vancouver opened in 2009. The Conseil scolaire francophone de la C.-B. (BC’s Francophone School District) (CSF) is committed to a world-wide eco-school program, which aims to coordinate education with sustainable development within schools and to integrate environmental learning within all subject areas. The school achieved a “green flag award for its commitment to sustainable development.
The school building was designed and constructed to LEED Silver standards.
Western Mechanical Services has been active in the LEED program, since its inception and we are pleased to have had a role in the construction process for this project by providing the air and water balancing for the building mechanical systems.
