Pacekids Programs believes in Developmental Play! Pacekids is excited to be opening a brand new South School in Fall 2017. Located in Calgary’s SE neighbourhood of Sundance, the new school will feature up to six adaptive, resource-filled classrooms and will be 12,000 square feet – more than double the size of their current south facility. With industry-leading equipment and resources like a sensory movement gym, outdoor adaptive play space and speech-language resources in every classroom, this new location will provide the very best therapeutic and educational option for the kiddos we service!
