Welcome back to
the After School Program Blog!
We hope you're enjoying the winter 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 spring 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.
REGISTRATION:
Registration for Spring Programs will close on Monday
March 9th, though late registration will be allowed if space is available. 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. Spring
programs with insufficient enrolment will be cancelled, and parents notified,
by Monday March 9th.
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.

Off-site Programs
Premier Gymnastics
The kids would have to be brought to and from the gym by their
parents or care givers.
Our gymnastics program offers a variety of classes suited for
children ages from 3 to 12. Younger kids are introduced to basic
gymnastics skills and older children are able to learn more advanced
skills, improve their strength and flexibility while having fun. Classes run from 4 to 8 p.m. and are 1 hour
and 1 1/2 hours long. http://www.torontopremiergymnastics.com/
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. For
more information visit: www.artistsplay.com
or call 416-309-7529
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. http://www.jumpingclay.ca/
Wilmington Tennis

2015 at Withrow Park. Registration will be open online for students at both Withrow Avenue and Pape Avenue ! Lessons will run twice a week (Mon

program, or twice a week. http://www.wilmingtontennis.ca/.
Pricing : Once a
week = $162+HST; Twice a week = $264+HST (save $60)
We will provide a FREE
After School Care for children enrolled in the 4:45pm class for the hour before
their lesson. During this time, they will be supervised by one of our staff
members on the playground. If any parents wish to volunteer their time, we are
happy to have more eyes.
With the back-up gym space secured at Pape Avenue , if it is raining, we will
escort the children from Withrow
Avenue to Pape's gym and hold the lesson indoors.
The Japan Martial Arts Centre is a karate learning and training
studio, and is the Headquarters of the IKA Canada. Children as young as 3 can
participate. If you are a parent and considering karate, please read our
parent's testimonials.
The Martial Arts is an excellent activity for self defense and
confidence. It is also provides physical and cardiovascular benefits. Our
program will teach you discipline, respect for others and knowledge of the
Martial Arts. You will learn the Five Dojo Kun.

4:00 - 5:00 Parents can pick them up from our DOJO between 5:00 - 6:00
(during this time they can do their homework). Special price for families/siblings in the

PLEASE note we are at Broadview and Mortimer on the
NorthEast Corner 2nd Floor. WE ARE NOT the Dojo on Braodview just north of the
Danforth beside Max's convenience store.
There is plenty of parking on the street for parent's pick up however if
they buy something at Sobey's they should be able to park there when picking
up. To Register: http://www.okuyamaupk.com/
