HOMEWORK HELP – WESTBORO YOUTH CENTRE
Help with homework for 10 – 14 year olds resumed on Wednesday September 12, and will continue on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. throughout the school year.

This program is located in facilities provided by All Saints Anglican Church at 340 Madison Ave. (off Churchill Ave., one block north of Richmond Road).

Participants in the program receive individual attention/help with all subjects, particularly math and composition. For the last part of the evening young people have an opportunity for recreation, other activities, and to socialize with old friends and to meet new ones. We want parents with children in this age group to be aware of the program, and for others to pass this information along to people who may not know about it and might be interested.
