As the school year comes to a close, staff and students of Stuart Wood Elementary are saying goodbye to their historic school. But this time, it's for good. Stuart Wood Elementary is closing, and students and staff will move to Beattie Elementary School in the fall. 

Stuart Wood Elementary School has been in downtown Kamloops since 1907. Plans are still unclear as to what the building will be used for next.

Daybreak's Jennifer Chrumka dropped by the school to chat with students about their memories of Stuart Wood.
