The North Delta Family Resource Centre, know as Family Place, has been providing positive parenting and healthy parent/child interaction through programs that are play based and encourage children 5 years and younger to learn in a nurturing and developmentally appropriate manner. Operating since 1998, Family Place is situated at Gibson Elementary School. Attendance is free. Many of the children are new Canadians and their program helps develop the skills needed to be successful starting kindergarten. Family Place relies, primarily on donations and the Rotary Club of North Delta is a consistent financial supporter.
It was a great turnout by students, Rotary and community for an afternoon Career Day at Sands Secondary School on Wednesday.
