StrongStarts provide free early learning programs for children from birth to Kindergarten entry.
Parents/caregivers attend with their children.
StrongStarts are led by Early Childhood Educators who support children with their learning and share ideas, resources, and community services with families.
StrongStart centres offer programming most days that elementary schools are open with a few additional closure days. See below for StrongStart calendar dates:

StrongStart Outdoor Sessions
Wednesday or Thursday mornings at various outdoor locations we’re offering outdoor opportunities around Delta for families to experience outdoor learning.
At StrongStart, parents and caregivers will have opportunities to observe and participate in activities that assist early learning, and discover new ways to support your children’s learning at home. You can also meet other parents of young children. A nutritious snack is provided to the children daily.
During program times you may also meet visitors from other Delta agencies such as:
Fraser Health: Public Health & Public Health Dental
Boys & Girls Clubs: Family Resource Navigator
Options: Childcare Resource Referral
For more information or to register, please contact each school.
