Saskatchewan's Ministryof Educationshowed off the designs for the province's new P3 schools today.

The project will build nine joint-use schools(half public school board, half Catholic) in Regina, Saskatoon, Martensville and Warman.

"It's a great day today because it's another step toward the completion of all these desperately needed schools," said Regina Catholic School Division Board Chair Frank Flegel in a press release.

The schools will hold more than 11,000 students from Pre-kindergarten to Grade 8.

The provincial government will spend $635 million dollars on the project over the next 30 years. That amount covers construction-related costs; the costs of maintenance over 30 years; and the costs of rehabilitation to "keep the schools in like-new condition."

Each of the schools will hold a 90-space childcare centre, as well as community space.
