Good news for our playschool families!
The Government of Alberta announced a subsidy for playschool fees beginning in January 2022.
As such, fees will be reduced from January - May to reflect this funding.
2x a week classes are $115/monthly - $75 fee subsidy = $40/month
3x a week classes are $145/monthly - $75 fee subsidy = $70/month
In addition to this initial subsidy, families with a household income between $90,000 - $179,999 per annum may apply for an additional subsidy.
This may mean that families will have playschool fees covered in full.
If you qualify for this additional subsidy, you MUST apply online, and the playschool will receive the funds directly.
>>APPLY FOR THE CHILD CARE SUBSIDY<<
HOW TO PAY FEES FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR:
The playschool will contact you in February regarding payment of fees.
We once again hosted a virtual Open House to ensure the safety of our families and teachers!
