Before and After School Care

Learn about before and after school care for your child.

Register your child in the City of Surrey's Before and After School Care program. Programs are available to children attending kindergarten to grade seven. Each day your child will have the time to create, move, discuss, observe, read and play. Our highly trained staff will ensure that your child is actively engaged in a variety of developmentally appropriate activities each day.

We are committed to keeping children safe at our preschool programs during COVID-19. Review City of Surrey's Before and After School Program Safety Guidelines and FAQs.

When registering, families can choose up to five days per week of Before and/or After school care during the school year. Days will be non-transferable and the chosen day(s) will be scheduled and charged for the duration of the program, (for example, if your child is registered for Mondays and Wednesdays, registration will be scheduled for every Monday and Wednesday throughout the school year). 

Refunds are not given if your child does not attend the program. The Before and After School Care program cannot accommodate drop in, flexible care or weekly changes.
