A full day of learning early in life can help improve a child's reading, writing and math skills and provide a strong foundation for future learning. We want to help prepare Ontario children for grade one and give them a better chance of finishing high school, going to postsecondary education and getting a good job. Putting Ontario's kids on track for future success at school, while making the day easier for hard-working Ontario parents, is the right thing to do.

This September, the full-day kindergarten program will be available at Holy Family School Hanover and Sacred Heart School Mildmay. 

In September 2011, the full-day kindergarten program will be availalbe at St. Basil's School in Owen Sound.

The goal is to have full-day kindergarten offered in all elementary schools by 2015-16.

The introduction of full-day kindergarten is the next step in Ontario's plan to improve education and build a stronger workforce.
