What is Big Kids Club's Autumn Top 10 2019?

Every afternoon, from September until November, our teachers count down a structured educational program called Autumn Top 10!

Through sharing and team work, Big Kids Club enhances overall social development, and when children attend twice a week, they practice the rhythms and routines they'll need in kindergarten:

  • Cleaning up
  • Sitting for circle time 
  • Story time amongst peers and teachers 
  • Music and songs 
  • Art projects
  • Science experiments 
  • Weekly field trips around greater Vancouver
  • Sharing and reflecting
  • .... and much more!

Weekday classes run from 1 - 4 pm everyday at Broadway and Storybook, and develop over the 13-week season. Sign up for your favourite classes every week, or mix and match across the board.
