Ts’its’uwatul’
Helping each other, working together as one.
In 1991 Lelum’uy’lh was started with a partnership arrangement with Vancouver Island University, formally known as Malaspina University. We started with eight children and today we have 93 spaces for children from 12 months to 4 years. Cowichan Tribes has fully controlled and operated Lelum'uy'lh since 1994 and proudly offers early development support to Cowichan Tribes children.
Lelum’uy’lh offers a wide variety of activities and services to the children of Cowichan Tribes members. We have an Infant/Toddler program, a three year old program, and two full day four year old programs. Lelum’uy’lh is a Head Start program and incorporates the six Head Start components - Language and Culture, Health, Nutrition, Parent Involvement, School Readiness and Social Supports - in everything we do. We have two Speech and Language pathologists. We often work with Clements Centre and Sun Drops Centre to offer additional supports for children and families.
Statistics:
155 Cowichan children are under age 5 (2021 Census)
