2008-2009 AFTER SCHOOL CARE AND ENRICHMENT - Grades K-6
After School Care and Enrichment at The Digital Discovery
Center is a high quality program developed by Pembroke
Kids Child Development Center, and located in the same building.
Our after school enrichment curriculum is fun and age appropriate. The
environment is safe and nurturing and run by experienced teachers. We
include a variety of opportunities for young children to explore computer
technology, filmmaking, photography, and more traditional arts, crafts
and literacy activities. Stopmotion animation, building with LEGO Technics
and programming LEGO robots captivate the older children. Younger children
love to build with basic LEGOS and are eager to move beyond just playing
computer games to learning how to use computers creatively.
On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings throughout the school
year we offer special sessions for groups of kids who love LEGOS,
Digital Media, and
Robotics but are not enrolled in our after school enrichment program.
