The Sunshine Program is an outdoor-focused program for Saint John children ages 6 to 12. Daily activities include sports, active games, arts and crafts and off-site adventures.
Morning program runs from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and afternoon program runs from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. (Note: Early pick up on Thursdays at 3:30 p.m. for weekly staff meeting.)
It is important to note that this program is not a full-time, daycare service. This program requires that a parent or guardian be home and available throughout the day. There is no staff supervision during the lunch hour and children are required to go home.
Registration may be completed online or in person upon your first visit to the program location of your choice.
