Each year, the city of Ottawa’s multiculturalism grows more and more. Culture is all around us and in our schools. Educating youth about culture is a core element in creating a sense of community, acceptance and openness in our students.
The Day of the Dead is a theme that offers many exciting and interesting learning opportunities. Our goal is to create meaningful learning experiences for teachers and their students in order to promote culture and learning outside the classroom.
​
Designed by qualified Ontario teachers, our school programs closely reflect the overall expectations in Social Sciences, Art and International Languages such as Spanish.
Students will discover the fascinating world of Mexican culture through our dynamic and interactive workshops that help develop creative and critical thinking, and will leave them with a greater understanding and appreciation for the
