We are beyond thrilled to announce that Tender Years will be re-opening it's doors on September 1, 2020! Please review the website for more details on our programs (Toddler, Preschool, Kindergarten) and updated (temporary) hours of operation.
Of course, this new school year will be a bit different. But rest assured that we are more than prepared and excited to welcome you all back! As always, the health and safety of our students, their families, and our staff remains our top priority, and we will be following very strict enhanced health and safety measures, as set out by the Region of Peel and Peel Public Health (https://www.peelregion.ca/coronavirus/childcare/). TYC will be required to adhere to new regulations and/or mandates from the government and/or Peel Public Health, and we will continue to monitor the situation and all official information from the Government of Canada, the Region of Peel, and local health authorities as it relates to our school community.
Please take a moment to watch this video on the reopening of Peel Region's child care centres, and familiarize yourself with some of the changes coming to centres including TYC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6Z29on-Tg8&feature=youtu.be.

Self-monitor, Self-isolate, and Isolate
There is a difference between advice to self-monitor, advice to self-isolate and advice to isolate. It is important to note these measures are in place to protect the health and safety of all Canadians.
Practice Social Distancing
Social distancing measures are a way to minimize COVID-19 transmission in the community. This means minimizing close contact with others during the peak of an outbreak. In addition to staying home when ill, we should plan for actions we can take if we need to reduce the spread of infection in places where we gather.
Hygiene and Hand Washing
Practise frequent hand hygiene and coughing and sneezing etiquette. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces, such as toys and door handles.
Avoid Any Non-essential Travel
