- The neighbourhood between Sperling Avenue and Burnaby Golf course was beginning to see a rapid development during the late 1960s causing the School Board to determine the need for a school to be built there. This was one of the last schools to be built in Burnaby before school enrolments in general began declining in the late 1970s.

- Heritage Value
- By the 1970s, the Sperling-Broadway Neighbourhood was characterised as one of the Municipality's fastest growing residential areas. In 1980, it was estimated that slightly less than half of the homes were single-family residences, while the remaining development was taking the form of townhouse and high-rise apartments. The emphasis shifted back to single family housing during the construction of planned subdivisions such as the Camrose subdivision in the 1980s and the area remains primarily residential in nature. The neighbourhood is well-served by park facilities and is also home to the Burnaby Mountain Golf Course.
