SKD Bilingual Child Care Centre locations offer a full summer program if there is sufficient enrollment. Some locations will combine to offer a summer program. Programming in the summer involves a wide range of activities that encompass our curriculum.
Most of SKD Bilingual Child Centre are located within publicly funded schools within the Region of Durham.
