Homeschoolers SPORTS PROGRAM -- Friday 1-3pm, for boys & girls born between Sept '97 & Sept '99. At the Ovide Park & Chalet in Pointe-Claire.

Let me introduce myself: My name is Janie Ladd-Carr. I have a Bachelor of Science specializing in Exercise Science and a Bachelor of Education in Physical Education. I taught Physical Education for many years and have coached / played a variety of sports. I ski instruct during the winter months and have 2 very active and athletic kids.

The SPORTS program will teach the skills, rules and sportsmanship involved in a variety of team sports and some individual sports. The emphasis will be placed on fun, learning, achieving your personal best and playing as a team against or with other children of the indicated grade level.

We will enter FUN competitions as a Homeschool team (see the dates and events below). Please note confidentiality of your children will be respected as it was at the Halo Run and CEPSUM Sports Day that we participated in last year as a Homeschool team/group.

Pre-registration indicating interest should be sent to: janie_ladd@yahoo.ca. Space is limited.

Details will be sent to interested parties re Sports Program (in BOLD) OR other activities  (in Italics) open to various age groups. Please indicate your area of interest. Replies will be made after August 31st.
