Remember, any Whitehorse youth or family are welcome at both programs. You may even attend both if it convenient for you.

Whitehorse Elementary will be starting up Wednesday, October 1st at 5:30pm and running until 7:00pm.
 
Elijah Smith Elementary will be starting up Thursday, October 9th, again from 5:30 - 7:00pm.

Once a month each program has a free family swim night. This year's dates are:
 
WES: Wednesdays: October 29th, November 26th, January 28th, February 25th, March 25th, April 29th, and May 20th. WES' swim is from 7:00-8:00pm.

Hello everyone...I hope you had a safe and enjoyable summer in spite of the weather!

The Whole Child Program offices are back up and running. Crystal Pearl-Hodgins, our Community Coordinator, can be found at Whitehorse Elementary on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I can be found at Whitehorse Elementary on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and at Elijah Smith Elementary on Tuesdays and Fridays. Our office phone number is still 667-8676 but I may also be reached at 335-2283 during regular office hours, Monday to Friday.

The start date for the WES WCP is Wednesday, October 1st. This year we will be following ESES's lead and changing our programming to begin at 5:30pm and running until 7:00pm.

I will post ESES's WCP start up date as soon as I have it. Again this year they will be running from 5:50pm to 7:00pm.

As well, I will post both school's swim times as soon as they are confirmed.
