Dear Parent/Guardian,
Pre-registration for the 2024 – 2025 school year is open.
You are receiving this email because your child is currently enrolled in the Before & After School Program.
Between January 15th and April each year, families are asked to express their interest in having their child attend a Before and After School Program during the upcoming school year (September 2024 to June 2025). The Board uses this information to determine which programs will operate in the upcoming school year, and these decisions are communicated to families in May.
School-based child care programs offer you access to high quality programs in convenient locations.
Before and After school programs are offered from 7am-6pm Monday to Friday. Programs operate for reduced hours on designated PD Days, and at a reduced number of sites during March break and winter break.
All Programs offer:
- Ongoing registration
- Nutritional snacks
- Age-appropriate, high-quality programming
While registration can occur at any time, it is important for families to pre register between January 15th and March 31st to help us accurately assess community demand for programs. Spaces are limited and there are times when a wait list is implemented.
To pre-register, please log into your OneList Waterloo Region account. When prompted to pre-register, click Yes and your child will be added to the pre-registration list for next school year. You will receive communication in June advising next steps to complete your registration.
For assistance with the OneList Waterloo Region site, please contact OneHSN Support at support@onehsn.com.
Please visit: www.wrdsb.ca/beforeafter to access program information.
