Universal Screening Day at Pacekids Sunridge (Date TBA)

What is a screening?

A screening is a brief, play-based check of your child’s development.

It looks at areas such as:

  • Speech and language
  • Motor skills (fine and gross)
  • Social interaction and play
  • Early learning skills

Screenings are not a diagnosis, but help us identify if further support may be helpful.

Why do we screen?

To help determine if further assessment may be beneficial – qualifying for services through Alberta Education (PUF, Mild/Moderate Funding)

In recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Pacekids will be closed on September 30. This day provides an opportunity to honour First Nations, Inuit, and Métis survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities, while encouraging learning, reflection, and meaningful conversations about reconciliation.
