Happy Days is a welcoming, inclusive preschool. Our teachers have additional training for children with extra needs. If your child has additional needs, known or suspected, please let us know.
We want every child to be successful and to enjoy their time at preschool. We will do our very best to accommodate the extra needs of every student. The best way for us to prepare for your child's success is to be aware of any concerns you may have so that we can plan accordingly.
Happy Days Playschool has been approved to participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI) effective September 1, 2023! You can learn more about the CCFRI here.
We happily accept the Affordable Child Care Benefit. This program helps fund childcare costs (including preschool) for families with household incomes of up to $111,000. Learn more about the program on the BC Government website here.
