Kensington Prairie Community Centre

Kensington Prairie Community Centre is run on a set of community partnerships and principles to improve access and services to families in Surrey. This facility focuses on early learning, healthy child development and community engagement all in a play-based environment. As part of our early learning focus, you'll find preschool programs and licensed childcare. 

Program disruptions or functional closures of facilities may occur if the minimum number of staff required to operate safely are not available to work. Some drop-in activities require reservations. Your patience and understanding are appreciated.
