Aretina comes from the Greek word for virtuous. Our club provides a fun, positive peer environment for girls ages 8 - 11. The girls receive character formation to help them grow and mature so they are able to use their talents in order to lead and serve others. Each month we meet and participate in various activities of an educational, cultural or charitable nature. Mothers and friends are invited to volunteer their time, talents, hobbies and ideas.

Our club is sponsored by West Plains Foundation which promotes women's vital role in influencing society through family life, professional work, academic pursuits, and community involvement.

The doctrinal and spiritual programs offered by West Plains Foundation are entrusted to Opus Dei, a personal prelature of the Catholic Church which aims to help people find God through their everyday life and work. For more information, visit www.opusdei.ca.
