Extended Care
Extended Care is a program for students attending Aurora School who need before and/or after school care. The program is designed to offer children an array of enrichment and recreational activities that make their experience with us a positive, educational and fun extension of school in a supervised, safe, secure and familiar environment.
Some of the activities are planned, such as woodshop, arts and crafts, sports, cooking, homework club, others are more informal, where a child can join in as he or she pleases.
Snack is provided every day around 3:20 pm.
