Cultural Teachings At Académie de la Tamise

It was so nice to be back at Académie de la Tamise (Academy of The Thames) again! This is a French Cultural (Elementary) School in London, Ontario, and they are always very welcoming. We have a lot of fun sharing knowledge about Indigenous Culture, with some Music & Dancing, of course.

Sharing directly with young people is the best way to keep our culture alive – and to watch these children become strong and responsible adults.

Many thanks to all the Staff and Students for their bright spirits and their pursuit of knowledge!

C’était tellement agréable d’être de retour à l’Académie de la Tamise ! Il s’agit d’une école culturelle française (élémentaire) à London, en Ontario, et ils sont toujours très accueillants. Nous nous amusons beaucoup à partager nos connaissances sur la culture autochtone, avec un peu de musique et de danse, bien sûr. Partager directement avec les jeunes est le meilleur moyen de garder notre culture vivante – et de voir ces enfants devenir des adultes forts et responsables. Un grand merci à tout le personnel et aux étudiants pour leur esprit brillant et leur quête continue de connaissances!
