Le Club History
The
Le Club community has grown to include fourteen Before & After school child care programs since its inception in 1994. The Executive Director, Palmina Muscat, is devoted in providing exceptional school age child care in safe, stimulating, culturally dynamic environments. Le Club programs operate within the York Region community and are all operated as not-for-profit, high quality living and learning environments for children aged 4 to 12. The name “Le Club” was chosen by a community based board and the children enrolled in the first program at Woodland to reflect the pedagogical intent to give the children ownership of their learning, their activities and their environment.

The
Le Club Board of Directors prides itself on being a community based Board and has from the onset, had at least two parent members, two community members and one qualified Early Childhood Specialist. All Board Members actively participate in all Board Meetings and decisions. The Executive Director, Palmina Muscat, attends all board meetings as a non-voting member.
