The Den (Derrick Ernst Neighbourhood Centre) is excited to announce that we will be running the popular School Readiness program again this January. This program has been very successful over the last four years.
The course runs over 3 weeks and is taught by an Early childhood teacher. The classes will give your child essentials skills which will be extremely useful when beginning their school journey.
Examples of what they will learn are:
