Current program costs are listed on our fees page.

P.A. Day payments will be withdrawn on the Monday of the bi-weekly period the P.A. Day falls.

For the 2023/2024 school year, there are seven P.A. days planned for each school board.

Due to the level of planning required to coordinate P.A. Days for all the PLASP children, we request that parents commit to having their child attend all the P.A. Days. This ensures that parents and children requiring care during P.A. Days receive the care they need.

During the 2022/2023 school year, school age children will participate in activities that feature outdoor play and nature-based activities, COVID-safe activities and activities themed around science, art, construction, design and discovery on school property on P.A. Days.

Yes, breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided for the day, and are included in the fee.

There are no extra costs; everything your child needs for the day is included in the price.

The staff to child ratio for school age children off site is 1 to 12. When the program remains on school property, the staff to child ratio changes to 1 to 15.

If the school is open, PLASP will operate the P.A. Day Program on-site. Children will be able to attend the P.A. Day Program from 7:30 a.m. until 6 p.m. at the school. If the school is closed, PLASP will not operate the P.A. Day Program. Parents will receive a phone call from program staff by 7 a.m. to notify them of the closure.

The P.A. Day Program is only available to children enrolled in one or more full-time programs.
