Before & After School Programs

The before & after school programs operate outside regular school hours during the school year from September to June, and are conveniently located inside schools allowing children to independently and safely attend our programs.

For age-appropriate activities, social development, and staffing support, our programs are structured into two core groups - Juniors and Leaders, each with its own designated space within the centre.

The Juniors program is tailored for children in kindergarten to grade 3, while the Leaders program is for children in grade 4 to grade 7. The same program structure applies to both before and after school programs and the seasonal breaks programs.

Important Note

All programs are currently full, but families are welcome to join the waitlist.
To be waitlisted, your child must be attending the school where our program is offered.
