WE Dads hike for dads and kids
Oct 22 @ 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM

Join us for a hike on the Sentier de la Foret ancienne trail at Mont Wright on Saturday, October 22 at 9am.  Dads, father figures, step dads or grandfathers are all invited to this great excursion outdoors with their little ones, with Jarryd, our WE Dads community animator.

Meet in the parking lot at 9:00 a.m.  This is a popular place, so hopefully the early start will allow everyone to get a parking spot!   The plan is to hike to the top and enjoy a picnic lunch together, so be sure to bring along a healthy lunch for your family (please avoid nuts for those with allergies).

Of special note

  • Mont Wright charges a fee of $7 per adult.  Children under 17 are free. There is a ticket machine at the entrance to the trails, near the reception pavilion. You can pay by credit or debit (Visa, Mastercard, Interac).
  •  The trail we will be taking is called ‘Sentier de la Foret ancienne’.  It is a 4km loop.
  • We expect this outing to take 3.5-4 hours.  It will be a 2 hour hike to the top, a half hour stop for lunch, and then about an hour to come back down.
  • This is NOT a stroller friendly trail and can be quite steep in some parts.  Accompanying children will need to be great walkers and for little ones we recommend carrying them in a hiking backpack.
  • Be sure to dress for the weather and pack a lunch, snacks and water.
  • See this map for directions to get there.

Who can attend

This particular event is open to all father figures and and kiddos! For more details please contact Jessica Price, Family Matters Program Coordinator, by email.

Workshop & tapas event: Parenting in challenging times
Nov 16 @ 6:30 PM

Parenting is always a challenge, but perhaps even more so in our uncertain times. It seems more complex to be a parent these days, considering new social media technologies and the major global issues encroaching on our everyday lives, such as the pandemic.  Join us for this, our first in-person parenting workshop since the pandemic.  Our special guest speaker is renowned psychology professor Dr. George Tarabulsy, who is also a father himself. All parents welcome!

About the workshop

Dr. Tarabulsy will address some of the old, not-so-old, and new issues surrounding parenting. He will focus on the fact that, while some aspects of parenting never change, the core aspects of parenting may take on different forms when faced with pressures that may come from outside the family and the social context that surrounds it. His presentation will draw both on the first-hand experiences of parents and on the vast body of scientific knowledge looking at parenting in adverse circumstances.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

Don’t miss this event for seasoned parents, new parents, and future parents-to-be. Join us at 6:30 p.m. for tapas and meet and mingle with other English-speaking parents. The talk will start at 7:00 p.m., and will be followed by a question and answer period.

Reserve your ticket! 

Space is limited for this event so be sure register using the green Register button above. For more details or questions, please contact Jessica by email.

School Registration and English Schools in Quebec
Feb 1 @ 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

The education system in Quebec is unique in many ways.  Language laws dictate who is eligible to attend school in English and who is not. Parents and newcomers may find it hard to navigate the school system. The session “School Registration and the English School System in Quebec” will feature a panel of professionals from Central Quebec School Board to help answer your questions.

This online event is for you, if you’ve ever wondered:

  • Is my child eligible to attend school in English?
  • When and how do we register for Kindergarten, elementary school and high school?
  • What school(s) can my kids attend based on where I live? If I am willing to drive my kids to school can they attend a school in another sector of town?
  • What are the options in terms of preschool, Pre-K, programme passe-partout, and before- and after-school daycare and how do we access them? What are the related costs? And what services are offered in each program?
  • Grade names here differ from those elsewhere. What is meant by cycle 1 and 2 and sec. 1, 2, etc. ?
  • Is it true parents of elementary students are often required to pay for noon-time surveillance if their children eat lunch at school? If so, how does that work and what does it cost?
  • Why do we have to purchase so many supplies each fall for kids attending public school. Doesn’t the school board provide these supplies? Who will give me the list of what materials my child needs and when?
  • I live on the south shore; when will there be an English elementary school on my side of the St-Lawrence?
  • What is all the fuss about school boards being replaced by service centres? What impact will this have on my child’s education and our local English-speaking community?
  • Québec schools seem to put a lot of emphasis on provincial exams; at what grade do these exams start? How does QCSB compare to other local boards in terms of exam results?
  • What is the difference between Québec’s adult education and DEP programs and CEGEP? Can we access these programs in English in Québec City? How do we apply? What programs are available and are there any fees for them?
