📣 Mayerthorpe Playgroup Has a New Location! 🎉

We’re excited to announce that for the 2026/2027 school year, Mayerthorpe Playgroup will be held at Elmer Elson Elementary School (EEE)! 🏫

The Town of Mayerthorpe/FCSS is incredibly fortunate to have the support of both Elmer Elson Elementary School and Little Elmers Childcare Society. This exciting change would not be possible without the generosity and collaboration of these two organizations. Thank you for helping make this transition possible!
