Must-See Experiences

MARCH 4 - MAGIC SHOW

Experience an unforgettable show with Ben, a French magician from a small inuit community who speaks  English, French, and Inuit! Seen on Canada’s Got Talent and France’s Got Talent, he shares his inspiring journey through storytelling, humor, and breathtaking magic. Students will discover northern cultures, be inspired by his path, and be amazed by illusions that blend art, language, and wonder!
(Grade4-Grade 10)

MARCH 10 - DANSE SHOW

Experience “Oro”, a powerful dance performance by Khoudia inspired by the meaning of speech and existence in Latin and Yoruba.
Through movement, she transforms words into emotion, inviting students to discover how the body can speak and share stories that connect us all. (Grade 7-Grade 12)

APRIL 23 & 24 - THEATER SHOW

Be amazed by a show that’s both funny and poetic: Petit Pois
What if, one day, a little pea started to think… all by itself? Outside its pod?
Let’s follow it through mountains and wonders, laughter and rivers, jumps and twists, tears and valleys, shouts and storms.
(Kindergarten–Grade 4)


Experiences available online, at your school (within Greater Vancouver), or in our center.


WORKSHOP AT THE HEART OF OUR THOUGHTS


Francophone Trivia

Inspired by the famous French game Burger Quiz, this theatrical game slipt two teams against each other in a trivia challenge that’s both silly and educational. Mixing humor, improvisation, and cultural learning, students will answer a variety of questions about the French-speaking world and take on mini-challenges. 

Grade 8 to grade 12



Improvisation and mime 

Through games and improvisation, students explore social themes while building confidence in French. Activities like mime and expression-based games boost vocabulary, spontaneity, and empathy in a fun, interactive way.
