What is a StrongStart Centre?
StrongStart Centres provide parents and caregivers an opportunity to share in their child’s early learning experiences and learn and grow together through PLAY. Families have the most important role in promoting their child’s well-being and learning and are asked to remain with their child to engage in this supportive and joyful, no cost, program.
StrongStart Educators are qualified Early Childhood Educators. They work in relationship with children and families to create safe and welcoming environments. Educators also provide carefully selected materials and activities to provide opportunities for children to invent, investigate, build theories, play, and learn skills necessary for lifelong learning.
Community partners such as the 91×ÊÔ´È«¼¯ Public Library, CCRR, Information Children, and Fraser Health Dental Screening are also invited to come and share how they can help support you and your family. Educators can connect you to additional community resources as well.
91×ÊÔ´È«¼¯ Schools StrongStart Centres are open when schools are open for instruction (times may vary). Please see specific school website for opening hours.
Additional closures are posted at each centre and may differ between locations. Centres are indicated as ¹ó±«³¢³¢Ìýwhen their daily capacity is reached.
