CHILLIWACK — While most everyone else was enjoying their Christmas break, Chilliwack School District maintenance and facilities crew went the extra mile after pipes burst at Sardis Secondary on Christmas Day.

According to an email from Superintendent Rohan Arul-pragasam obtained by Fraser Valley Today, SD33 operations personnel sprung into action after some issues arose with burst pipes and sprinklers at Sardis Secondary over the Christmas winter break.

In particular, a pipe burst in the north end of the campus building, resulting in partial flooding of the dance studio, a music room, and the Sardis Secondary theatre, which is named the “Mike McAstocker Theatre.”
