Government of Newfoundland and Labrador to Build New School in Conception Bay North

March 23, 2026

The Newfoundland and Labrador Provincial Government’s commitment to build a new school in Conception Bay North.

The new school will replace Cabot Academy in Western Bay, which was destroyed by fire in August 2025.

Work is currently ongoing to determine the size, specifications, and construction timelines of the new school, which will be determined by factors such as enrolment projections, programming requirements and possible site remediation.

An environmental site assessment will be completed as soon as the snow clears, which is standard for any new school construction.

Construction work on the new school is anticipated to start in 2027. Construction timelines will be dependent on the size and specifications of the new school.
