History
Construction of Centennial Collegiate began on June 1, 2006, and it officially opened in the fall of 2006,[3] having a total of $18.4 million invested in the construction of the school by the Saskatchewan government and the Saskatoon school division. Centennial was constructed in order to recognize Saskatchewan becoming a province and the birth of Saskatoon.[citation needed]
The school colors (red, black, and gold), and the team name (Chargers), were selected in 2005 by a committee of grade eights from Collegiate's feeder schools. Dylan Wingert and Braedon Harper, students of Silverspring School, designed the logo of the Collegiate.[4]
Centennial's feeder schools are Willowgrove School, Dr. John G. Egnatoff School, École Forest Grove School, Silverspring School, Sutherland School and Sylvia Fedoruk School.
