CHILDREN'S RECREATION PROGRAMS
Our Early Years (ages 6 months to 5/6 years) and Children's Programs (ages 5/6+) allow your little one to discover a variety of activities. We have monthly "Play and Learn" programs for the preschooler and a variety of sports, arts, crafts, language and music to choose from for children of all ages. At the City of Nanaimo, we know how important it is to have and establish an active and healthy lifestyle.
