Child Care Centre Closure for Child Care Educator Professional Learning Event
In August 2021, Canada and Ontario signed the Early Childhood Workforce Funding Agreement which provides funding to support the retention and recruitment of a high- quality child care and early years workforce. Bruce and Grey Counties implement a full day professional learning event for all child care educators. To allow all our staff to attend these educational events, all Bruce County programs will be closed on Friday October 2nd, 2026 and all Grey County programs will be closed on Friday October 9th, 2026. Families will not be charged for these closure days. Thank you in advance for your continued support.
