We’d like to introduce you to the Hillhurst Sunnyside Out of School Care Program, more commonly know as OOSC. For any of you are not familiar with us, we are a fully licensed before and after-school program operating out of the Community Association. We are open Mondays through Fridays and currently licensed to take up to 56 elementary school children, Grades 1 to 6.
Here at OOSC we aim to create a program where the individual needs of all our children can be met through a wide variety of creative, educational and recreational activities. In recognizing each child as an individual we attempt to offer as diverse a range of activities as possible, so that developmental needs of each individual child can be met on a daily basis. Through these choices we hope to enhance the physical, social, intellectual, creative and emotional wellbeing of our children in a safe and secure environment where they feel they have the room to grow and flourish.
