Our daycare is a licensed early childhood education centre that was established in 1991. As a centre operated by qualified Early Childhood Educators and assistants, it is our goal to give the children new and exciting opportunities to learn about themselves and the world around them. Our mission is to create a safe and nurturing environment that will develop and guide the social, emotional, intellectual, physical and creative growth of each child. We offer childcare for children aged 30 months to five years of age. Both the preschool and daycare program give children an introduction to the French language and culture. Children are encouraged to use the basic French they are leaning on a daily basis, and are given new opportunities to expand their language skills whatever level they are at.
With the arrival of the CPR in 1885, Kamloops embarked on a period of rapid growth and development. The opportunity to work on the railroad drew men from all over and brought a new optimism to the community. While there was much manoeuvring for advantage by land speculators and businessmen, rapid expansion took place and a new prosperous middle class developed. With these men came wives and families and no fewer than ten social organizations were formed from 1881-1883.On Jan. 5, 1886, Kamloops Lodge held their first meeting and continued to meet under dispensation until a charter was issued, in the name of Kamloops Lodge #10, on June 21, 1886. This new Lodge was formally consecrated and dedicated on Sept. 6, 1886. It quickly became a focal point and meeting place for the social elite of the growing village. The hardware merchant, druggist, chief of police, doctors and lawyers found common ground here. They were the 'movers and shakers' of this frontier community. Their first meeting hall was in one of the out buildings of the old Fort Kamloops, HBC post, in present day Mission Flats
