not impossible to place your child in day care or nursery school but if you want a spot for september start registering now a weekender poll of 41 daycare centres and nursery schools in the area found 2396 licensed spots for babies two months old to school- aged children barely more than 130 spaces for enrolment exist either im mediately or for september but with new centres opening and reg- istration not begun at some places the figure will no doubt climb however a huge waiting list of nearly 1000 families is on the books with some centres filled for the next two years but again that figure is open to interpretation families may be waiting on several lists at once or have already found a spot for their youngsters also some daycare centres and nursery schools dont keep waiting lists this late in the year success in finding a spot is greatly determined by the age of the child nursery school enrol ment for babies has the greatest demand least demand is for schoolaged children under 10 some directors say space prob lems are exaggerated but adv ance planning is essential they say it is unrealistic for a parent to think a place for their child will be available the moment they ask conversely other critics point to a new federal proposal that would see parents receive 900 for each child in day care as help in the wrong area space not cost is the problem they say on average nursery schools excluding room for infants under one year arc more accessible than daycare centres because children dont attend fulltime our area can take up to 1275 nursery schoolers the poll found 270 families on waiting lists and space for 68 children either im mediately or for september fulltime daycare centres have 853 spaces a waiting list of 653 and space for 40 day care for school

imately 750000 in a provincial wintario grant for the new facility interest on money borrowed to finapce eafly construction will be paid by the markham youth soc cer club mysc according to parks and recreation committee chairman fred cox mysc president larry fore man confirmed the clubs com mitment to interest payments but couldnt quote a firm price i dont know the exact fi gures he noted it all depends on the terms of payment the town negotiates with the builder however he said a decision for early construction is a bargain for the town it saves money and we get our facility faster he noted a final decision to approve the facility will come before council april 14 councillor cox said construc tion should begin in late may or early june if approved by council he added that it should be
