Welcome back to the After
School Program Blog!
Please check the calendar below for cancelled WINTER TERM programs.
We hope you're enjoying the fall lineup of after school activities!
Just a reminder…we are running programs for the entire school year, with the exception of the
very first week of school in September and the very last week of school in June
(in accordance with TDSB policy).
There will be announcements the first week of winter programs to let students know where each program is located. The kids should go straight there after the bell rings at 3:30 and programs will start at 3:45. Please let your child's teacher know ahead of time if they are attending programs so the teacher knows how to dismiss them safely.
KINDERGARTEN:
Because kindergarten classes are dismissed at 3:15, we offer JK/SK specific programming starting at 3:30 and
finishing at 4:45. Kindergarten programs are run separately and are being
offered 5 days a week.
FRIDAYS:
Fridays are typically less busy, so we are offering one combined
program for our youngest, JK-Grade 2. Friday programs will begin at 3:30
for the Kindergarten crowd and Grade 1 & 2 kids will join them once they are dismissed.
ABSENCE:
If your child is missing a session, please contact the program
providers directly to let them know that your child will be absent, even if you
have already notified the school office.
DISMISSAL:
All programs end at 4:45. The students will be
escorted to the front doors and the instructors will wait there until
all students have been picked up. Please let the program providers
know who will be picking up your child.
REGISTRATION:
Registration for Winter Programs will close on Tuesday December 16th. As always, you sign up directly with the program providers using
the links available through the program calendar. Click on the program name
within the calendar for a full description of the program. Then click on the
link within the description to access the registration sites. Once you've
registered you'll be communicating directly with the program providers about any
schedule changes, etc.
PROGRAM CANCELLATION:
Programs will run if enough students sign up. Sometimes individual
programs don't get enough interest and we have to cancel. Winter programs with insufficient enrolment will be cancelled, and parents notified, by Wednesday December 17th.

Artists' Play Studio
The
exciting and fun Dance Club runs on Wednesdays and Thursdays at our
Studio. We also offer Walking programs that lead into our dance classes
everyday of the week.
Jumping Clay
Jumping
Clay is a safe and non-toxic air-drying clay. It is water soluble and
mess-free. We use the clay as an educational tool to promote culture and
learning with programs that facilitate a "Learn Through Play" mindset
which appeals to children of all ages. By making simple geometry shapes
and putting them together, you can create beautiful 2-D and 3-D artworks.
Every
week, the children will be guided and taught step by step lessons on making
different projects which they will take home at the end of every class.
The children will also learn team building and at some point make a big
diorama.
There will be one class on Tuesday for 4-8
year olds and Wednesday for 9 and up, we provide a walk over program.
