Colchester East Hants After School Committee created the After-School Program to offer youth ages 10-14 years an opportunity to “Get Active” twice a week during the after-school hours, in a non-competitive and supportive environment. The program was developed through collaboration among five municipal recreation departments (Bible Hill, Colchester, East Hants, Stewiacke and Truro) and is funded through grants provided by Chignecto Central Regional Centre for Education and the five municipal partners.

We are Looking for After School Program Leaders
After School Program Leaders play a strong role in the design, promotion, and delivery of After School Programs for youth age ranges very from 7-14. The Programs are physical activity-focused, with elements of play, self-leadership, and teamwork. The Programs are based on outdoor play, games, skill building and nature awareness activities. These positions require individuals who are interested in learning new skills around youth engagement and delivering quality programs, promoting an active lifestyle.
