Welcome!
Hillcrest Elementary Out of School Care (HEOSC) offers Before and After School Care for children enrolled at Hillcrest Elementary School. HEOSC also operates Greentrees Daycare for families in the community. All programs are licensed through Island Health Child Care Licensing.
HEOSC is located onsite at Hillcrest Elementary, but is a separate non-profit organization that works in collaboration with the school. Many of the school's facilities are shared - including the gymnasium, playgrounds, and a beautiful forested area.
HEOSC programs focus on creating a safe, fun, and friendly environment for all the children. Be Safe, Be Kind, Have Fun!
