Before and After School Programs at the City of Ottawa
In the Before and After School Programs at the City of Ottawa, children start or finish the day with fun! They play games and participate in sports, be creative with arts, crafts, and cooking, or get a head start on homework. In our programs, children make friends in a safe and dynamic setting.
Children have access to the best amenities the City has to offer: gyms, sports fields, pools, rinks and more.
Programs are affordable with competitive rates ranging from $8 to $14 per day, depending on the plan you choose. Sign up for the weekly program or try individual weekday options at participating locations that are perfect for hybrid schedules.
Transportation plans between schools and Before and After School Program facilities are available. Contact your preferred location for more information.
