School-age programs are designed for children 6 to 12 years of age. These children spend most of their day at an elementary school. Programs operate at different times, such as:
- before and after school
- at lunch
- during school breaks
- on days when schools are closed.
- The programs are available through many child care centres and home child care agencies.
What are the advantages of this kind of care?
- School-age children get different programs from pre-school children. For example, they get more opportunities to make their own decisions. They can also organize their own games.
- Children also can choose their own activities, such as:
- physically active play
- quiet board and word games
- crafts
- Activities are geared to older children.
- Children can access the supplies they need for hobbies and other interests and can work on projects for longer periods of time.
- Staff have experience working with school-age children and are always present to guide and encourage them.
