Seamless Day Program at Queen's Park Elementary
School District 67 is excited to offer a Seamless Day program at Queen’s Park Elementary School. Seamless Day is a unique model that brings continuity of care throughout your child’s day. The Seamless Day program begins at 7:30 am, where an Early Childhood Educator (ECE) will meet children in the Before School Care Program. During the school day, the ECEs will support children in their Kindergarten classrooms. When the bell goes at 2:30 pm, the children in the After School Care program will meet the ECE and remain in their care until they are picked up by their families. During the before and after school hours the ECE’s will provide play-based and developmentally appropriate activities for the children using classroom space as well as the primary pod, playground, school garden, gym and library. The Seamless Day Program will use BC’s Early Learning Framework as a guiding document and the ECEs and Kindergarten teachers will work collaboratively designing the program and the environment.
This program is designed to provide students with meaningful relationships, a sense of belonging, excellent care and learning opportunities with the shared gifts of our Early Childhood Educators and Classroom teachers. The program minimizes the children’s transitions throughout the day and allows them to spend their time in the same familiar environments throughout the school and with the same caring adults.
We will be accepting applications for the 2024-25 school year on April 15, 2024. The application window will close on May 15, 2024 and spaces will be filled by random selection of applications received by the deadline until the program is at its capacity, based on criteria being met and the priority order for spaces.
