Newcomers & New Cultures

For kids 6 to 9 years old.

Did you know that 1 in 4 people in Canada were born in another country? Our country is rich with diverse cultures waiting to be explored. Join us in this program dedicated to celebrating our differences and highlighting what makes each of us unique. We’ll learn about different foods, music, play a cultural jeopardy game, and do some fun icebreakers! Designed to embrace diversity, this program also provides a welcoming space for newcomer children to build new connections as they embark on the back-to-school journey.

For children ages 6 to 9. Please register each child attending.

Please note, a caregiver must remain in the library while children under 10 years of age attend a program.

We kindly remind you that registrations will be removed if the registered person does not meet the program’s specified age requirements.

Programmer: Vrinda
