Realities Keep Changing: New Africa Centre to Transform Old School Site
The old Wellington school site in north Edmonton is undergoing transformation as the Africa Centre is poised to rise in its place.
Between the time the 13160 127 St. junior high school was shuttered in 2005 and the building was demolished in 2016, Edmonton’s Africa Centre had been operating out of the rundown structure, offering largely volunteer-driven community programs like a kids’ homework club and basketball for the city’s growing African community.
