WINTER Highlights

Take an Art Class at Any Age January is the perfect time for the whole family to get creative in one of our many art classes. Look for the revised Aspiring Young Artists program taught by the amazing Heather from our popular Aspiring Artist Summer Program.

Art and Pottery classes for school age kids on page 32, teens on page 38, and adult classes on page 40.

Year Long Preschool We have made some exciting changes to Year Long Preschool!

We will continue to offer the same great facilities, instructors and programs with changes that offer more options and flexibility for families. What’s new for 2015-2016?

Daily Registration: Now you can register your child for the week days that work best for your schedule, and for as many days as you would like. With daily registration you are not limited to a traditional Mon/Wed/Fri or Tues/Thurs model.

4 Hour Kinderprep Program: Longer class times allow for more time spent on numeracy and literacy, in addition to the important learning achieved through play. This program is geared to help children transition to full day Kindergarten.

Open House Join us to learn more about our program, classrooms and teachers by visiting our FREE Open House in both the JDF Kids Cottage and Playroom. The Nature Preschool Open House will be held in the outdoor play area adjacent to the Kids Cottage Saturday, February 21 from 10:00 – 11:30 AM Registration for new Families: Saturday, February 26 at 8:00 AM

Spring Break Camps Double the time double the fun, March 9-13 and 16-20! With two weeks of Spring Break we have a variety of camps at both Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre and Centennial Centre.

Preschoolers will ‘Spring into Action’ and ‘Little Chefs’ will mix it up with loads of crafts, games, songs and stories. For school age kids we have an action packed two weeks, for Aspiring Artists, Fashion Designers, Mad Scientists and more.

SWIMMING CLASSES My son has been in lessons at JDF for 2 years and loves it. He may not know the days of the week but he sure knows Tuesdays and Thursdays (swimming lesson days)! The pool staff are all fantastic. The pool is clean and provides a fun safe place for kids and families.

The swim instructors are wonderful and you can tell they all enjoy their jobs; and have been amazing at teaching the kids to swim. They are patient, caring and firm when required. We have had nothing but good experiences at the pool here -whether in lesson or for family fun nights. Thank you for providing a great space for the community.

DAY & TIMES

Described as an early specialization sport, learning to skate is the first step in developing the next hockey player or figure skater. Our NCCP trained instructors develop engaging lesson plans that help your child develop the necessary skills of skating. These skills will improve your child’s physical literacy and help to develop other sport specific and fundamental movement skills.

The Greater Victoria Active Communities Learn to Skate Program is a regional initiative of seven municipalities of Greater Victoria. This program is streamlined and designed so that any pre-school or school age child can have their accomplishments transferred from one center to another. This is a badge incentive program that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive feedback through a report card. Our Skate Team Leader is on the ice during all lesson times and can answer questions regarding lessons and your child’s skating progress.

In the past 8 weeks I have been training with Shannon Van Ember, I have had a very noticeable gain in strength and endurance and I have lost weight and inches from my waist. Shannon has been very helpful in adapting some of the exercises to accommodate an old knee injury and I am able to complete exercises that I haven’t been able to do for years. While Shannon works hard for her clients, the results speak for themselves! I would encourage anyone wanting to become more fit to take training with Shannon!

Close to one in five children live on or below the poverty line in the Capital Regional District. Thanks to KidSport, many of these kids have been able to enjoy a season of sport and camaraderie with their friends. More than 20,000 individuals have benefited from KidSport investments, but many more could use our help. If you or someone you know could use a hand, go to any Recreation Centre or School to get our five-step application form. To help support our work so all kids can play contact us at www.kidsportvictoria.ca
