Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I'm going to talk about what's not here today on the Capital Plan listed on page 11, and that is the Capital Plan to construct a gymnasium and a couple of classes for the K’alemi Dene School in Ndilo. Mr. Chairman, my understanding is that the numbers at which the school becomes eligible for its own gymnasium is 125 students. I see that there's been some departure from that in the past, but I didn't know what the full capacity of some of these schools were at the time the gymnasiums were built. But the bottom line is that K’alemi Dene there is currently 117 students and the school has a full capacity of 121. Mr. Chairman, that is third highest percentage of all schools in the Northwest Territories, and projections indicate that the K’alemi Dene School will soon have 140 students within the next five years, so I want to ask the Minister what the plans are for expanding the school so that it sits within the correct enrolment percentages or capacity that's application to all schools across the territory, and if there is any contemplation by this department to build a gymnasium in Ndilo along with two additional classrooms that can accommodate the students in K’alemi Dene School. Marci cho, Mr. Speaker.
