Will we get five-day kindergarten?

Within a couple of weeks parents of next year's kindergarteners will know whether Colborne or the new Northumberland Hills Public School will be granted all-day every-day junior/senior kindergarten.

If the schools in this area are not selected for the program this year, the kindergarten students will continue to go all-day every-other day, as they do now.

The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board expects to hear soon from the provincial government which 23 schools have been approved for the plan which will cover all schools by 2015-16.

All elementary schools across KPR are continuing to take Junior and Senior Kindergarten registrations for the 2010-11 school year. Parents whose children will be starting school for the first time this September are encouraged to register at their neighbourhood school as soon as possible.
