The Voice of English-speaking Quebec invites you for the Sunset Ferry Ride on Tuesday, August 27 from 5:40 to 8:30 PM.
We will ride the ferry to Quai Paquet in Lévis that leaves at 5:40 PM. Once there, we can grab some food or some ice cream (or both!) from the food trucks available or from the ice cream shop located one block away from the Quai, while getting to know each other! We will be returning on the 8:00 PM ferry (to Québec). We will bring board games to facilitate your interaction with others. At the Quai, there are 160 water jets, perfect to refresh you, so make sure you bring or wear your sandals or why not your swimsuit! If you are an avid photographer, you can also check out the Red stairs (193 steps) located two blocks away from the Quai, and admire the beauty of the view from atop. There is also a café near the Quai, not far from the ice cream shop. Feeling like picknicking? By all means, bring your own snacks and a picnic blanket or portable chairs!
The fees for the ferry ride are covered for participants and the event is open to all! Registration is required and we have a limited number of places.
The Ferris Wheel ride and any other purchases (like meals) are not covered.
Don’t miss the next VEQ Game Night on Friday, August 30. Hosted at the Jeffery Hale Pavilion from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., you can join other members of the English-speaking community (newcomers or not) for a fun, social evening with light refreshments provided.

Join us for our first-ever toddler gym class.

These parent-child sessions also provide an excellent opportunity for you to connect with your child as they navigate the stations.
What your kiddos will practice
- Climbing on our new Montessori climbing structures
- Jumping
- Balance
- Coordination
Kanga Gym is a unique approach that will challenge your child’s physical and emotional abilities in a fun and social setting.

Local Vocals – English Language Singing Ensemble
Do you enjoy singing? Are you keen on learning new songs? Join the Local Vocals, where music and camaraderie meet in a harmonious blend of cultural expression.
Local Vocals offers a diverse auditory experience with Folk, Pop, and classical pieces in various languages. Our rehearsals are conducted in English to ensure everyone can participate comfortably and fully.
In addition to regular rehearsals, Local Vocals frequently participate in community events and concerts, allowing members to showcase their talents and skills. Performing for the community enriches our group and the city’s culture. It’s a delightful way to connect with an audience, share our love for music, and inspire others to join in harmony.
Location
We meet every Wednesday afternoon from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. at St Michael’s Church, 1800 Chemin Saint-Louis, Sillery. Join us for this weekly gathering to improve your singing skills, meet others, and enjoy music.
