I started reading about the British Columbia School Trustees Association's approach to early learning in the 1990s. They're even dealing with kids who aren't in the system yet. We're talking about preparing kids to be able to arrive in kindergarten. My wife works with the West Side Family Place in Vancouver. That has early childhood programs, and they liaise with elementary schools in their neighbourhood.
Those are critical for making sure that kindergarten isn't a burden for people. I think no matter how you implement it, in whatever community across the country, being able to have some kind of national approach to it, with a collaborative goal-setting structure between provinces and communities, would be wonderful.
