Strong Start Programs

StrongStart BC early learning programs provide school-based early learning services for adults and their young children, aged birth to five, at no cost to families.

Both children and adults can benefit from StrongStart BC early learning programs; children have access to high-quality learning environments and benefit from social interactions.

The adults who accompany them can learn new ways to support learning, both at the program and at home and make valuable connections with others attending the program.

Qualified early childhood educators lead learning activities, including stories, music and art to help children get ready for success in kindergarten.

StrongStart BC Early Learning Centres are located in school facilities and operate five days per week, for a minimum of three hours per day.
