StrongStart Welcomes You Back

StrongStart Information Letter & DHC 2020

DEAR WINDSOR DROP-IN FAMILIES,

StrongStart programs are prepared to welcome you back once again while following a carefully planned set of protocols during the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Please register with the StrongStart program closest to your place of residence. Windsor Family Drop-In is not offering ‘drop-in’ at this time.

Please carefully read the info provided and register online.

Burnaby StrongStart Centres
Burnaby StrongStart Centres are looking forward to welcoming you back in person as early as
October 26, 2020. Although we have been engaging with many families via emails, phone calls,
Blogs, and Zoom it will be wonderful to see you face to face.
Burnaby StrongStart Centres will offer a blended model that will include 3 days a week of inperson programming at StrongStart centres, 1 day a week of outdoor exploration at local parks
or on school grounds, and 1 day a week of virtual outreach to stay connected to families who
arenโ€™t quite ready to visit us in person. Schedules will vary at StrongStart locations and not all
centres will be open for in-person programming.
In-person visits will be limited to four families per day (1 parent/guardian per 3 children
maximum) in order to maintain safe physical distancing. Outdoor explorations will be limited to
ten families per day (1 parent/guardian per 3 children maximum) to maintain safe physical
distancing. All in-person programs will run from 9:30am to 11:00am to accommodate cleaning
and disinfecting protocols.
There is no drop-in StrongStart. All families (new and returning) must register online for the
2020-21 year. The total number of registered families will determine the number of times per
month families can attend an in-person StrongStart program. Burnaby StrongStart programs are
available to Burnaby residents only. Families can attend at one location only.
Registration for StrongStart is now open!
How do I register?
๏‚ง All new and returning families must register online for the 2020-2021 year.
๏‚ง Please register for the StrongStart Centre closest to you home.

๏‚ง Once your registration form is processed, a StrongStart Educator will contact you to

registration to be processed.

    Hi Ms.Wendy, Kate here. Wonderful news. When I tried to register, the option of the Windsor drop-in is not available in the list of SS centers. Can you advise on that plz.

    Thank you

      Hello dear Kate, nice to hear from you. As you have already noted, Windsor Family-Drop in is unable to have in person visits at this time. Windsor Drop-In has always been a little different from the rest! I sure do miss seeing all my regular families. I would suggest you find the StrongStart nearest to your home, and get registered there for in person visits. I would be happy to introduce you to my wonderful StrongStart co-workers, just let me know where you register and I will help you connect.
