Kenora Catholic District School Board

Across KCDSB schools, we partner with community providers to offer a variety of child care options, including licensed care and before-and-after school programs, to support families.

UPDATE: For the start of the 2025–2026 school year, there will be no aftercare programming available in Kenora and Red Lake due to staffing shortages with the Kenora District Services Board. This affects all elementary schools in these communities.

We recognize how important aftercare is for families. Kenora Catholic is working closely with the Kenora District Services Board to explore options and will share updates with families as soon as they become available.

Please use the links below to check what child care options are currently offered at your child’s school.

Lower child care fees through the CWELCC

The new vision for Canada-wide early learning and child care (CWELCC) looks to ensure that all families in Canada have access to high-quality, affordable, flexible and inclusive child care no matter where they are.

There is more information on this subject provincially and nationally. As well as specific information about Financial Support for Child Care. 

Families may be eligible for subsidies. For information on applying for fee subsidies for child care, please visit the Kenora District Services Board website - Early learning and Care (ELC) Fee Subsidy.
