The Early Learning for Families (ELF) program brings early learning initiatives out of the schools and into the community by offering pop-up programming at the Central City Mall in Surrey. 

Some of the fundamental characteristics of the program are: 

• Child-centered, play-based learning
• Parent engagement
• Focus on early literacy and numeracy
• Links and referrals to school district and community resources

Early Learning Assistants will assist with program facilitation by setting up the physical space, engaging children and parents in play-based activities, and using skills in communication, patience, creativity, and supervision to create a safe and entertaining environment for program participants.
