British Columbia Family French Camp

At BC Family French Camp, children from French Immersion and other French-speaking kids bring their families along to camp!

Families camp in their own tents or trailers. Together, a friendly neighbourhood is formed, surrounded by the sounds of children playing and singing in French. Programs are available for children aged 4 to 16.

And parents don’t have to be able to speak French! Parents enjoy a rewarding blend of lounging time and sharing in a variety of small volunteer duties while their children use their French in a wonderful outdoor setting with their energetic and funny francophone Moniteurs (counsellors) who are hired for their spirit, enthusiasm, love of working with children, and ability to share all things French-Canadian with BCFFC families!

Visit the BCFFC website for more information: www.bcffc.com

Vancouver International Children’s Festival

May 28 – June 3, 2018, Granville Island, Vancouver

The first of its kind in North America, the Vancouver International Children’s Festival began as a theatre festival for young audiences presenting international performances. Today the Festival is multi-disciplinary presenting theatre, music, dance, circus, puppetry and storytelling and over the years has been an inspiration to major cities throughout Canada and abroad, where annual children’s festivals now take place.

The Festival features francophone performers throughout the schedule and one full day of francophone programming.
