Before & After School Care
Kids from JK to 12 years at our Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) locations
Flexible options.
You can choose before school, after school, or both, and enroll your child 2, 3, 4, or 5 days a week.
Learning through play with safety as a priority.
Every day in our before and after school programs, we ensure a smooth, safe transition between school, RisingOaks and home. Our educators are in communication with school staff and parents every step of the way.
As well, our educators are trained in standard first aid and CPR, the use of epi-pens, and other requirements of individual medical and/or support plans. Secure access is in place at each location.
Qualified educators who genuinely care.
All RisingOaks educators are registered members of Ontario's College of Early Childhood Educators and are committed to providing your child with the tools to develop positive relationships and discover their world through play, building on their curiosity as the foundation to becoming lifelong learners.
What does a typical day look like?
When the weather allows, we move outside, providing rich learning opportunities and fresh air. This is a time for large group games, cooperative play, nature walks, and science experiments. Children experience social interaction and creative learning together.
Inside the classroom RisingOaks learners work on projects and creative activities focused on their interests.
Nutritious morning and afternoon snacks are provided by our approved caterer daily. For PA days and camp, a Bag Lunch Policy is in effect.
