Kids Club now offers Coordinated Approach to Child Health (C.A.T.C.H.)

When you send your child to Kids Club, you don't have to be concerned with what they're doing after school. Our program gives children the opportunity to have fun in a caring environment while being social with their peers. Here, they get a chance to exercise, relax, do homework, engage in creative play or participate in sports and games.

C.A.T.C.H. is a health and after school program proven to reduce the rate of childhood obesity and improve children’s health-related behaviors. It is the only coordinated nutrition education, and physical activity program with fifteen years of solid research and evidence to support its design and content. Every week, C.A.T.C.H. is making a difference in children’s lives across North America and beyond. We are proud to make this program an included benefit to all Kids Clubs participants.
