Safe, nurturing care beyond school hours.
Supporting your child’s growth every day.
Before & After School Childcare
The Before & After School program is open to children in Grade Pre-Primary to five.
The Prospect Road Community Centre provides Before & After School Childcare to students attending Prospect Road Elementary School, Atlantic Memorial Terence Bay Elementary and/or those who are enrolled in the Couseil Scolaire Acadien Provincial.
Parents can expect their children to enjoy fun play, structured crafts, free time, and much, much more. Parents enrolled in the program will receive a “Parent Handbook” which contains all of the information, practices, policies, and procedures relating to our childcare program.
