News & Updates

Program Cancellations & Location Changes/Disruptions

Be sure to check out our Facebook and Instagram pages (@townofstmarysearlyon) for any changes to program locations or any cancellations due to inclement weather or extreme heat.

Important Information:
With the start of outdoor programming, all morning program times, with the exception of Play & Read, will be adjusted to 9:00 - 11:00 am.

KEyON 

Everyone attending EarlyON programs must now be registered through KEyON, a digital sign in application. Each adult attending programs will need to make their own account; children can be shared between accounts. 

After creating an account online, you will be given a key fob that will be scanned each time you attend a program. This will help us track attendance and determine the best kind of programming for our community. You can also use your online account to view calendars from all EarlyON programs across Perth County. 

Create your KEyON account. 


The Town of St. Marys EarlyON Centre offers a variety of free programs for parents, caregivers and children ages zero to six years. These play-based and interactive programs are a great opportunity for you and your family to explore, learn and create connections within the community.

Play & Learn (Various locations)

Play and Learn is a play group for families with children aged zero to six years old. We provide a safe and engaging environment for children to learn through play and build connections with other families.

During the summer months, siblings over the age of 6 are welcome to attend our outdoor Play & Learn programs. We try to set up near a playground so that all interests can be met. Please know, however, that our programming will continue to be geared towards ages 0 - 6 years.

Play & Read (at the St. Marys Public Library - Queen Street entrance)

Play & Read is a program for families with children aged 0 to 6 years.

Activities based on favourite stories are presented for you to enjoy together. 

*Please use the Queen Street entrance (next to the Tim Hortons) of the St. Marys Public Library.

Circle of Security

At times all parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you. The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.

Please pre-register for all 7 sessions via your KEyON account. Attendance at all sessions is requested. Child minding is available, if needed. Please email to confirm child care requirements.

Play & Browse

Join us for a Play & Learn program at the Community Closet. Check out the closet while the children play. There is no cost to the items at the closet. All are welcome to browse and ‘shop’ during this special program.

Baby Time at Kingsway Lodge

Join us and the residents of Kingsway Lodge for this enjoyable intergenerational program. The program room is downstairs. Take the elevator to the lower level and the doors will open into the program room. Parking is limited, please consider walking, if possible.

Baby Time

Baby Time is a group for parents of children aged 0 to 18 months to come together in a safe environment, to support each other, build relationships, take part in adult conversation and enjoy engaging children’s programming.

Wonderful Wednesdays 

We will have unique and fun experiences for you to enjoy! Come out to see what we have planned!

June 4: Songs & Stories - join us for lots of fun and interactive songs and enjoy listening to some favourite stories! Feel free to bring a favourite stuffie along!
