Kindergarten/School Age Program
 
The Kindergarten/School-Age Program is a licensed program staffed by early childhood educators. Throughout the school year, we offer before and after school care to both kindergarten and school age children, plus full day alternate day care to kindergarten children. During the summer, we offer a full day program to both school age and kindergarten children for the months of July and August. The Kindergarten program is located at 2649A Concession Road (within South Branch Elementary School) and the School Age program is located at 2659 Concession Road (within the North Grenville Community Church).
 
 
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
 
In the Kindergarten/School Age Program we create, pretend, discover, build, explore and make new friends.

Free play: Art/sensory, science, dramatic play, books, construction, puzzles, games, and computers are all available to provide endless learning activities.

Active play: Playgrounds, climbing structures, and a full gymnasium provide many opportunities for developing physical skills.

Field trips: Allow the children to explore the wider world around them.

Mealtimes: Just as in school, the children bring a "brown bag" lunch. The Centre provides two delicious and nutritious snacks per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

Swimming in the summer: The Red Cross AquaQuest Program is made available by special arrangement with the North Grenville Recreation Department. Fees for the swim program are charged separately and are payable to the Municipality of North Grenville.
 
The Kindergarten Program is for children between the ages of 3 years 8 months and 5 years.

The School Age Program is for children between the ages of 6 years and 12 years.
