COVID-19 Measures ⚠️
Our organization has created an envelope system containing materials and instructions for each child. The virtual activity is accompanied by how-to videos or a link to follow the activity live, allowing the activity to be done with a computer or tablet.
Our on-site workshops follow specific guidelines for the education community (COVID-19), such as wearing personal protective equipment at all times, and disinfecting materials and work surfaces.
The PAAL Program
The PAAL program complements the Quebec teaching model since it is part of the Integration and Intercultural Education Policy, enacted in 1998 by the Quebec government. PAAL’s workshops contribute to the education of democratic citizenship, as offered by this policy, by enabling students to enrich their intercultural communication skills. Our activities are also in line with the Ministry of Education and Higher Education’s support program for the reception and integration of immigrant students. The goal is to help young immigrants integrate into the Quebec society.
