About

Here in the Hillhurst Sunnyside 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 wide a range of activities as possible, so their developmental needs 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.

Each day we offer options based around both active and passive activities, with choices being centered on Gym time, outside activities, craft and creative activities, and a general games/play area. A quiet area for homework and reading is also provided. In giving our children these choices we aim to encourage them to make decisions for themselves thus helping build self-esteem.

Talk is also an important part of the OOSC program. In giving the children time to talk and listen we hope they will learn to respect the views of others, while feeling free to express opinions of their own. Social interaction is an important life skill and we feel it our duty to help each child develop social skills such as patience, cooperation, respect for self and others, acceptance of other’s views and how to build positive human relationships.

Ultimately, however OOSC is about having as much fun as possible in a safe and secure environment with enthusiastic, energetic people who care!!!!
