School District 58 will be part of an expansion of the 2019 Seamless Day Kinder-
garten pilot program — though the host school still has not been determined.
Seamless Day Kindergarten integrates before- and after-school care into the kin-
dergarten classroom, delivered by certified early childhood educators (ECEs) who
work alongside the classroom teacher. The program makes the best use of available
school space, existing classrooms, outdoors, school gyms and libraries outside of
school hours.
The Province provided $3 million in 2022-23 to add 20 classrooms, including Nico-
la-Similkameen SD58, expanding the Seamless Day Kindergarten to 45 classrooms
throughout the province. In 2023-24, $4.1 million in new funding will be provided to
support the Seamless Day Kindergarten pilot.
Times Change "I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford. Then I want to
move in with them."
Defense Contractor My job is in the Aerospace Industry, and it's always been a challenge
to explain what kind of work I do. At one gathering, I tried several unsuccessful attempted
explanations before deciding to be as generic as possible. When the subject came up while
I was talking with a group of guyas, I replied simply, "Defense Contractor." The men nodded,
and as the conversation went on, I silently declared victory to myself. Then, one of them
turned to me and asked, "So, what do you put up mainly? Chain-link?"
