We’ll be offering creative full-day programs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Before and after care will also be available as early as 8:30 a.m. and as late as 4:30 p.m. for an additional $5.

The Calvary Church in Woodstock is also hosting day camps next week for kids in the Friendly City. 

They will be offering the camps from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm if the schools do close down next week because of the CUPE strike. The cost is $20 a day per camper. Kids need to pre-register now if they want to get some of the last spots.
