Preregistration for September information about cost and duty days


Thank you for your interest in Playgroup. Your next opportunity to preregister is June 21, 2012 from 9:30 - 11:00 am. Please bring your chequebook as this is the only day we will be accepting preregistrations for September. (Cash or cheques only).

 The preregistration is for the whole year only, from September to June and the cost is $180 per family. But if you wait until September to register, the cost will be $200.

Our hours will be Monday to Friday, 9am to 1pm and you can come as often as you want and arrive when it is convenient for you except on your duty days.

Since it is a cooperative, we will require 2-3hrs of volunteer time each year from each member excluding activity days.

The Duty Days for the full year is 5 days and you will be able to pick them is September when you will know more about your schedule for the Fall.
And the committee members will do the duty days the 1st 2 weeks after each registration, like that all the members can see what it involves:

·        Making a small craft for toddlers, we have some all ready to go, you just have to make sure you have enough, usually about for 8 kids
·        Or preparing a music activity. Not very hard, we have a box with songs and most of the time the kids pick the one they like and we just sing them. The words are on it for those of us that don’t know the song.
·        Making sure all the windows are closed before leaving.
·        Wiping down the craft tables.
·        Wiping down the snack tables.
·        Vacuuming the floor and passing the broom.

If you have a very little baby, most of the time someone will help with the vacuuming and you can pick a day with music and movement for your activity day. It is easier that way from past experience.
