The Acton Central community has also been wonderful for us as parents. Their guidance on how to communicate with and support our children has been very helpful. Daily updates through the Transparent Classroom app let us see what our son is learning, which makes our conversations at home so much more meaningful.

These focused learning periods are strategically aligned with Alberta’s statutory holidays, allowing families the flexibility to recharge together and/or travel during off-peak times.
Between sprints, we intend to offer optional recreational-focused childcare, ensuring a balance between structured learning and leisure activities. This care is also provided on PD days.
The price will be based on number of participants to cover the operating expenses. Options include:
