The
Half Way
Tree Branch
The Half
Way Tree Junior Centre housed in the Old Court House building and situated on the
grounds of the St. Andrew Parish Church, reopened in September 2002.
The Centre,
which was closed for approximately 18 years, was reopened as a result of a growing
need in this geographical area for a cultural Centre which catered specifically
to young persons.
The Centre
presently offers classes on Mondays to Thursdays 2:30 - 5:00 p.m. and Fridays 2:30
- 4:00 p.m. Classes are offered in
Speech, Drama, Drumming, Dance, Art and Craft, Needlecraft, Sign Language and Heritage
Fun Studies for young people ages 6-18 years.
Located
in the centre of Half Way Tree and housed in an historic building, the Junior Centre
will help to foster good cultural values and skills which it is hoped will be transformed
into good moral values and help to develop good qualities in our young people.
