Welcome to StrongStart in the Greater Victoria School District


StrongStart BC is a free early learning program for all children aged 0 to 5. Children attend StrongStart with their parent/caregiver.
StrongStart Facilitators are ECE-trained school district employees.
We are excited to welcome families to our six centres. StrongStart is open Monday to Friday from 8:45-11:45. Please use the booking app to select the day(s) you can join us! If you are a first time visitor, please register using the online registration form.
The StrongStart educators will lead a variety of learning activities designed to support children on their learning path before they enter school. Parents and caregivers attending a StrongStart BC Centre will enjoy play activities, circle time and a snack!
