Child Care

There are a number of schools throughout our board that work with community partners to offer child care programs on site. Some of the schools participate in the province of Ontario's Best Start Program (Best Start), some are offering programs as part of the province's Full Day Kindergarten program (Before and After) and others have independently operated child care facilities (Centres) on-site.

Child Care Centres: Stand alone centre within the school which provides supervision of children within age categories of infant, toddler, and preschool.

Before and After School Programs: Child care within the school for students in kindergarten to Grade 6 who need care before and/or after the regular school day hours.
