Preschool open, but all other in person programming is closed.
Under the current stay-at-home order, our preschool remains open, however all other in person programs and services are closed.
On April 7, 2021, the government announced a province-wide Stay-at-Home order starting April 8th for at least four weeks until May 6th in response to worsening trends in key community health indicators across the province.
During this period, all our programs and services at the Club, other than preschool, will be closed for in-person programming.
As we head into this time-limited government action, we want to take the opportunity to highlight the importance of continuing to follow public health and safety protocols in school, recreation program settings, and in your day-to-day activities. With spring break and the nicer weather around the corner, it is more important than ever that we continue to follow public health advice and do our part to keep COVID-19 from spreading in our communities.
Outside of school and recreation program settings, we encourage families to continue to:
• Socialize with your own household.
• Activities or playdates with those outside your household should be held outdoors and limited to no more than five people, with physical distancing and masking where distancing is not possible.
• Stay home and get tested if you feel ill.
• Refrain from travelling.
• Refer to Ontario.ca/covidresponse
to learn what public health measures are in place in our community based on the COVID-19 response framework. We also suggest checking out the Toronto Public Health website as it may also have helpful resources and supports.
For the week of April 12-18, pharmacies that currently offer testing and assessment centres across the province will accept appointments for children attending child care and child care staff for asymptomatic testing. The Ministry of Education will be working with school boards to offer school-based clinics. Parents are encouraged to take advantage of this testing capacity to have their children tested to support the safe return to school on April 19 and continued safe operation of child care.
Please stay at home as much as possible and continue following the direction of public health officials so that we can keep schools and early years and child care programs open.
Thank you for your efforts in these unprecedented times.
