The Dr. A.R. Lord Elementary School before and after school care program at the Hastings Community Centre is in it's second week of operation. The creation of this important program to provide out of school care started four years ago when a gap in affordable and accessible child care was identified by our school's families. A lot of hard work and determination by parents and community members has gone into making this a reality. In particular many thanks to the Hastings Community Association that provided support, space and resources to incorporate this much needed program into the Hastings Community Centre that sits right next door to the school.
