Stepping Back into History | VANCITY ADVENTURE

Welcome to Vancity Adventure!

The first Lochiel School, originally known as Biggar's Prairie School, was built in 1889 on North Bluff Road (16) in the area originally known as Biggar's Prairie and later as Lochiel.

On June 30,1891, the Columbian Newspaper reported that the Lochiel public school examinations and picnic were "a great success." After the exams, the teacher, Miss Isaac, gave out prizes, the bagpipes played "Gathering of the Clans," and the people set up tables and had a feast with "all the delicious things that are good for the inner man". Following the food, games were started with jumping and stone-throwing, and then more food, waltzing and reels until it was time to return home.

In 1924 the school was rebuilt and operated until 1975 when it closed its doors. For the next 13 years the school was abandoned until in 1988 when the Langley Historical Society purchased it and moved it to Campbell valley Regional park, where it was restored and now sits on 1,352 acres.

If anyone has ever wanted to time travel and see Langley in the 1920s, Lochiel School is a glimpse of the past.

I am Daryl, a travel & adventure filmmaker. I’m one-third of the Treo behind Vancity Adventure, a YouTube channel, exploring the world with my son Cayden and Tosha the Pug (sometimes my wife).

We set out on this adventure in April of 2020 to film our adventures and create videos that motivate and inspire. Our mission from the start was to inspire people and to be honest in all we do.

Adventure is right around the corner! Let’s get outside, explore and make new friends. We cannot wait to go on this #vancityadventure with you!
