School Age Program

Philosophy

Roblin School Age Program is geared towards letting the “child be the child”. Play in a child’s life touches on every aspect of development and learning throughout the day. The school age child(ren) who attend our program will be given the unique opportunity to learn in an environment free of discrimination and full of respect.

We believe that all children deserve a safe, non-aggressive caring environment to grow and develop. We strive to teach children to care for their bodies through proper nutrition and health care habits.

We continually strive to promote continuing professional development with staff. Teamwork is encouraged and practiced among staff and children. We believe that everyone has something important to share.

We look forward to working with you, your child and our community watching your child grow over the years. We strive to make your child’s experience with us a memorable and rewarding one.

Daily Program

Roblin School Age staff believes that play is children’s work. Our staff plan activities, which encourage our school age children to explore their full environment. Our daily routines include snack, free play, indoor/outdoor play, large & small muscle play and planned activities.

Each child in our care will have the opportunity to choose from homework clubs, kids clubs and fun programming. We believe that when children play in a safe, comfortable and stimulating environment, under the guidance of attentive, caring and respectful staff, children will flourish in all areas of their development – social, cognitive, emotional, language and physical. Snack schedules and daily programming schedules will be posted on the parent bulletin board.
