Daycare Don't Care

May 5th Part One - So the Gilder Early Learning and Child Care Center (daycare) in my #TorontoCommunityHousing building has decided to upgrade their infant and toddler play spaces. From what I can see these pieces of playground equipment are still in great shape and the one for toddlers has more accessibility features than what is available on the playground equipment used by the #TCHC community as a whole. Has any thought or consideration been given to recycling this playground equipment? There is plenty of room to install the equipment behind the #TorontoCommunityHousingCorporation low rises here on Gilder. I really wish TCHC and affiliates would quit working in silos to have best possible outcome for the community as a whole instead of having competing interests vying for space and funding. #Recycle #Accessible #Playground #Equipment #Silos #hope_still_lives_here
May 5th Part Two - I would dearly love to know who gave Gilder Early Learning and Child Care Center permission to commandeer our basketball court. Installing gates at both entrances and placing one of their sheds in the corner of the court without any consultation with the rest of this #TCHC community is disrespectful. Especially given that the daycare was given a seat on the committee that managed to have the basketball court upgraded in the first place. Where was the quid pro quo? Plus, Gilder is not exactly overrun with activities that can keep #TorontoCommunityHousing children and youth busy over the warmer months. Removing access to the one activity that they don't have to sign up to participate in is detrimental to the youth and the community at large. #Children #Youth #TorontoCommunityHousingCorporation #Basketball #hope_still_lives_here
