Clubs Hours: Monday-Friday, 7am-6pm
When they’re not in school, kindergartners enjoy fun, educational
activities at the Community Recreation Center. Then, when
it’s time for school, trained Willamalane drivers take care
of the transportation for you. Academic programming stimulates
young minds in the mornings, and afternoons are filled with
music, crafts, active play, field trips — and a rest period
for those who need it. Little Kids Club follows the Springfield
School District calendar for holidays and school closures.

Willamalane Kids Club is a before- and after-school program
for kids in Springfield elementary schools within Willamalane
boundaries. Programs are also available on most no-school days
and during vacation breaks. Each school site program needs
to meet a minimum number of participants for each program;
some school sites are combined with adjacent school sites,
with transportation provided between schools.
Families can register for morning care, afternoon care and/or no-school-day care. You choose whether you need care one day a week or up to five days a week each month. Your monthly fee will vary depending on the number of days of care available each month. Days of care fluctuate monthly with the school calendar and holidays.
