Spring Break!

Spring break felt like it just flew by. The last two weeks were a nice change for the kids who got a chance to not think about school and just enjoy some quality time with friends. As staff we were looking forward to running some awesome In days, as well as taking the kids out of the centre on some fun adventures. I would have to say our most exciting In days were "Minute Challenges" where we had a variety of "minute to win it" style challenges and the other day was the very popular "Slumber Party" mainly because the kids got a chance to dress up in their pajamas, make some pillows, listen to stories and of course get treated to some delicious hot chocolate.















During the days we were planning on leaving the centre, we didn't let the weather stop us form heading to our destination. Rain or shine we were determined to get the kids out and about for some fresh air. We visited the very popular Garden City Park & Terra Nova Park. Our Garden City visit was a wet one as the rain poured down, but the staff and kids geared up and trekked out to make the most of our day. While at Terra Nova we had the sun on our side, as we spent the entire day playing at the playground, field and zip line.























While everyday had its own adventure, I would have to say the highlights of spring break were our visits to Town n Country for some bowling and the Aquarium. Many of our kids got the opportunity to bowl for the first time and while it was nice to have a high score, a lot of them took with them the simple enjoyment of celebrating in each others success, STRIKE! The Aquarium was just an all out amazing day as the kids got to see so many cool creatures of all shapes, sizes and colours.





Feel free to approach any of the staff if you want to find out more about our awesome spring break and if you have any ideas or suggestions of things we should check out let us know as summer is just around the corner.

Thanks,

Jason
