the opportunity for your child to experience our sunny activity

cooperative games, sensory experiences, water play, creative
movement, music... And if that isn’t enough, in small groups the
children visit the sparkling Mooredale heated pool every other day
to enjoy a swim, one on one with a summer fun staff member and
lifeguard. Our continuing partnership with Real Food for Real Kids

Safety
in the Parking Lot
Remember to use the parking lot safely
– even when there is snow and ice!
Bottom line… your children’s safety
depends on it.
Put your phone away before you slowly enter the
l
parking lot.
l Always BACK CAREFULLY INTO THE PARKING SPOT –
between the lines.
l Be Polite – don’t yell at our staff who are trying to help
direct traffic – your children are watching and learning
from you.
l Do not leave your car running – it pollutes the air for
everyone at Mooredale and for our neighbours too.
l Please escort your children and walk across the parking lot
to use the sidewalk to travel to the Main House and the
Coach House entrances.
l Remember to drop off or pick up and then leave the
parking lot immediately, to free up the parking spot for
the next parent
l The Mooredale Parking Lot is for members who are
registered in a Mooredale activity or program at that
time; it is not a commuter lot, a parking lot for parents
driving their kids to Rosedale School, for guests who are
visiting nearby or a parking lot while you are running to
appointments or walking your dog.
l If you have a mechanical problem, car breakdown, come
to the Main Office and we will assist you. (If it is after
hours, please leave a note on your dashboard with a
phone number to reach you.)
When the snow plow is forced to push the snow to the edge,
we may lose access to a couple of parking spots along the
edges of the lot. Please stay safe and it will help everyone
arrive and leave in a friendly atmosphere.
Snow Clearing Advisory:
l Depending on how much snow falls, when the snow plow
clears the lot, the snow is pushed to the edges and over
the winter we may lose access to a couple of parking
spots along the edges of the lot
l Please stay safe and it will help everyone arrive and
depart in a friendly atmosphere.
