Francophone artist tour in schools Cet automne, nous avons accueilli la troupe francophone Moov Ottawa Dance en tournée dans les écoles yukonnaises. Plus de 1 750 élèves des trois autorités scolaires ont eu l’occasion d’assister à des spectacles de danse de rue ou participé à des ateliers vivants. Une façon à la fois ludique et captivante de découvrir la langue française et de célébrer la culture francophone à travers la danse et l’art. The Francophone Artist Tour brought Moov Ottawa Dance to Yukon schools this fall! Over 1,700 students from the three school authorities watched amazing street dance performances and joined in energetic workshops. It was a fun, engaging way to celebrate French language and culture through movement and art! Advent candles for sale! Advent is a week away and we are selling 4-piece candle sets for $25. Please email [email protected] to purchase. Thank you in advance for supporting our Religious Education program! Advent is a four-week season in the Church calendar (the start of a new liturgical year) dedicated to anticipating the arrival, or "advent," of Jesus of Nazareth. Actively participate in advent by lighting a candle each Sunday during advent. This year advent starts on Sunday November 30th.
