Enrollment
Only registered Changemaker students will be accepted into the After School Care program.
We ask that you confirm the days you will be attending at the start of each week or each morning by e-mailing Ms.Joanne and Ms.Megan Berling.
Children who have not been picked up from school by 3:45pm on any day without having a pre-purchased pass, will automatically be charged the daily fee of $25 regardless of number of days in a week or month the service is used.
Please note that we are an After School Care Club and not a licensed childcare. Therefore, charitable tax receipts are not available and childcare related grants are not applicable. (There is a significant cost and time-commitment to become a licensed childcare facility which would increase both our rates and group size).
Collection of Child(ren)
- Children must be collected no later than 5:30pm each day.
- A late fee of $1 per minute from 5:30 pm onwards will be charged.
Attendance and Sign-In
Children will be signed in by school staff members every day they are in attendance at the Calgary Changemaker School After Care Program.
Parents/caregivers must sign their child out every time they pick up their child. If someone other than the parent or emergency contacts on file with the school will be picking up your child, we will require written notice and permission.
Sick Children
Sick children will not be permitted to attend After School Care.
Absences
The After Care supervisor should be notified of absences via e-mail or phone on any day a child will not be attending. Days off are built into the unlimited pass rates and there will be no refunds for any reason.
Fees
Fees are payable within 7 days of invoices being issued. The Calgary Changemaker School reserves the right to charge interest on overdue invoices. There are no refunds for missed days.
Behaviour
The After School Care Program reserves the right to deny or cancel acceptance to children whose behaviour threatens the safety, wellbeing or health of others. All major incidents will be reported to the Head of School. All school expectations and school code of conduct (found on handbooks page) apply to After School Care students.
Contact Details

Medical
