Our School-Age Program

Guiding children to experience their world and pursue their interests

Our school-age programs include before- and after-school care, back-up care for school holidays and school closing days, and summer day camp. We provide school-age children with the opportunity to live, learn and socialize in a relaxed setting outside of school.

We offer a wealth of enrichment activities that engage the interests of school-age children. You may find school-age children creating a magazine or a video, playing chess or shooting hoops, tutoring each other or forming a club. Teachers are there alongside, facilitating, guiding and understanding that learning does not have to take on the tone and texture of a school day but rather be filled with fun.

What Parents are Saying

Our greatest advocates are also our closest friends.

"Thank you all for your support and assistance this school year. We truly appreciate all the hard work you do with the challenges that each day brings. "

Dice

You Will Need:

At least two dice (test them in a choke tube before allowing preschool children to play with them).

Directions:

Start with one die. One person throws it, counts the dots and then performs an action that many times such as blinking, wiggling their nose, or touching their ear. For older children try having one person throw two dice, then count the dots and add them together. The participants play this game until a certain sum is reached.

Tip:

This is a wonderful game to play in restaurants or while enduring long waits. While commuting, children can play by themselves, using the top of a shoebox.
