Rogers Society, which provides 63 child-care spaces, has been told it must vacate the space by June 30
A long-serving organization that provides 63 child-care spaces in a building next to Rogers Elementary has been told by the Greater Victoria School District that it must vacate its location by June 30.
“Currently there are a lot of families stressed out about this,” she said. “Finding child care is difficult.”McMillan said the society has operated in the building adjacent to the elementary school for 32 years, and has been trying to get an explanation for the district’s decision to cancel its licence of occupation. The building was built by the district for child care in 1991, she said.The Greater Victoria School Board is not commenting right away.
McMillan said the society reached out to the district a year ago because it knew changes were coming, as the province brought in funding changes and the Education Ministry was changed to the Ministry of Education and Child Care. The province has been creating child-care spaces in schools in partnership with school districts.
The society offers child-care spaces before school, after school and on professional-development days, McMillan said, as well as running spring and summer camps.
