Preschools and Out of School Care

Preschools 

Our preschools are designed to develop the whole child intellectually, socially, physically, emotionally and cognitively. We provide a positive and encouraging learning environment where children of various cultures and backgrounds share and learn about each other.

All preschool registration requires in-person registration at the facility requested. When registering, please bring your child's:

  • birth certificate
  • BC Care Card
  • immunization record
  • photo (required by some centres)

Fees are payable by cash, Visa, MasterCard, American Express or cheque and are due at the time of registration. An additional registration fee may be applied. Monthly post-dated payments for the remainder of the school year are accepted.

The preschool term is from September through June with a winter and spring break vacation. Licensed preschools have qualified ECE preschool instructors. All licensed preschools require that children must turn appropriate age by December 31, 2018.

Registration for the 2018/2019 school year is ongoing in all facilities. Registration for the 2019-2020 school year has also begun. Preschool viewing times are available, so please call the facility located in your area for details and times.
