Update on Canada Wide Early Learning and Care Program
October 13th, 2022 by Anna Gionet No comments »Dear Families and Staff of Orde Day Care;
As you may be aware we applied for and were accepted into the Canada Wide Early Learning and Care Program for 2022.
This allows us to provide a refund to children who are under the age of 6 from April to September 2022 and charging a reduced fee from October 1 – December 31, 2022.
For full fee parents of children under 6 this will mean a reduction of 25% of your monthly fee, and for subsidized families we will be using your revised daily fee calculated by Toronto Children Services.
We have yet to receive the funding for the program from Toronto Children Services, but once we do, we will begin calculating and processing credits for eligible families accounts. If you child is 6 or under and you have not yet paid your fees for October, please hold off until we send out the monthly invoices.
If you have withdrawn from Orde Day Care and attended between April to September 2022, we will be sending you a check for the refunded amount. Please contact the daycare if you have moved so we can process the refund more efficiently.
If you should have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at admin@ordedaycare.org
Best
Anna

CLOSURE OF ORDE DAYCARE (18 ORDE ST/33 ROBERT ST) ON SEPT 6 2022
August 18th, 2022 by Anna Gionet No comments »Dear Families and Staff of Orde Day Care Centre;
I apologize for not getting back to you by August 14, 2022 regarding our plans to return to 18 Orde St from our current location at 33 Robert St.
I was not able to meet with the TDSB representatives overseeing the construction at Orde Public School until today.
As a result, it was determined at today’s meeting that our daycare classrooms will not be ready for our return until September 6, 2022.
Due to this delay we will be closed on September 6, 2022 to all children and programs at the 18 Orde St location ( Orde Public School) and the 33 Robert St location (Lord Lansdowne). Orde Satellite (132 St Patrick St location) will continue to remain open.
The closure will allow our staff to safely set up the environments for the children when we reopen on September 7. 2022 at 18 Orde St ( Orde Public School) at the regular hours of 7:30 a.m to 6:00 p.m.
I know that this may cause difficulty for some of our families, and I apologize for this disruption in service.
Fees for this one day of non service will automatically be deducted from the September billing for preschool and kindergarten children at the Orde Site.
School age children who are enrolled full time (all three parts) will also have one day deducted from their bill.
Thank you for your understanding and continued loyalty to Orde Daycare.
If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me directly at admin@ordedaycare.org
Thank you for your time
