M.Y. Out of school care Academy--Servicing Castle Park Elementary School
Kindness-towards all
Respect-to others and thier environment
Inclusion of everyone
A place to come and enjoy social time with your friends, have fun and develope life skills. This center was created so children can have say in their down time while including fun acitivites that promote; self awareness; self reliance; responsiblity for ourselves, our team mates and our environment. Theme related daily acitivites will be part of our afternoons. Whether it be a science day, a cooking day, a math day, a word day or an art day there will be fun actiivites awaiting you after school. Knowledge is power and learning should be fun. Just because school has ended does not mean life skills cannot continue. Whether you are chef for the day, playing bingo or going on a treasure hunt for words and treats there will be some fun learning taking place!
Parents are so busy my plan is to include activiites that you wished you had time for. Learning to bake and decorate a cake or playing a team game will be times your children will remember and cherish.
There will also be time to work on homework and have social time with our friends. There is a comfy lounge area with a 6 foot bean bag lounge to hang out with your friends share stories, look through photo albums or play games on an ipad, there are also board games, art supplies. lego and other building materials and just about everything else a child could want.
I hope to expose your children to a variety of activities finding favorite interests for all. Don't ask how smart is your child ask what is your child smart at. Everyone deserves to flurish at something, lets find that something!
Physical fitness is a key component in our day. We have the ability to start our day off by walking to school; waking up the body and mind. After school we take the opportunity to spend 45 minutes at the school playground where the children can work their bodies as well as intersect with friends from school as well as daycare. We do alternate these days with trips to our neighbourhood Castle Park
