With action songs, sensory activities, parachute games, puppets, arts & crafts, and more, 123 Petits Pas French classes ensure that each little participant’s first experience with the language is fun, engaging, and useful!

AFTER 4 & BREAKFAST CLUB REGISTRATION SEPTEMBER 2019 TO JUNE 2020CHANGES TO AFTER 4 LOCATION AND PRICINGLocation Change: 260 Sunnyside Avenue/The Firehall: As of April 2019, After-Four will take place at the Firehall for ALL grades.

Price: Our prices will be increasing by $10 per month. The new prices will be $220/month for After 4 and $185/month for Breakfast Club.

Cancellation of Part-Time Spaces: Space will be limited at the Firehall and we want to ensure all those needing a full-time space receive one. As such, we will will no longer be offering part time spaces in our After 4 programming.

We’re very excited to have all the children under one roof at the Firehall. We’re sure you’ll agree that this will reduce the logistics of travel between the Firehall and Southminster for parents with children in both programs. We also feel the change in location will bolster the programming with a wider variety of activities offered daily; more children to participate in activities; more variety of space to utilize; and easy access to all of our programming supplies and equipment for the children.

AFTER 4OSCA’s After 4 Program provides activities for children after school ends, from 3:00-6:00 pm. Our program includes supervised walkover from Hopewell Public School (or bus pick up for those from other schools), a healthy snack, games, sports, crafts, trips to the park or library, and occasional workshops. Our dedicated staff is committed to building a positive rapport with every child.

BREAKFAST CLUBOur Breakfast Club starts at 7:30 am at the Firehall, Monday to Friday, with walk-over to Hopewell School before classes begin. A healthy, well-balanced breakfast will be provided to ensure that your children will be ready to learn. It’s a great way for children to start their day! Please note that Breakfast Club is only offered to those who attend Hopewell Public School. Those who attend other schools by bus must contact Sarah Cybulski at [email protected] prior to registering to determine whether an exception can be made or not.

MUAY-THAI KICKBOXING Mondays 7:00-8:00 pm July 8-August 26 $82 KICKSU19 (7 weeks) Exception dates: August 5

Muay-Thai is a style of kickboxing that is often referred to as the “Art of 8 Limbs” because it combines the use of punches, kicks, elbows and knee strikes. Almost all techniques in Muay Thai use the entire body movement, rotating the hip with each kick, punch, elbow and block. The class will allow participants to learn the techniques in a progressive and logical way. The training is also intense, fun and safe! Perfect for beginners because the focus is on basic fundamentals which emphasize proper stance, movement and strikes. Class will begin with skipping to warm-up followed by shadow boxing (learning technique), partnered drills using Thai pads to improve offensive and defense technique, ending with conditioning drills to work up a sweat! Equipment is provided such as hand wraps, boxing gloves and Thai pads (striking shield). Experience for yourself a striking art that is proven to be effective not just in the ring, but also at getting you in the best shape of your life!
