the association La Girandole offers a variety of workshops focused on initiating children to dance and performing arts. Created for francophones and francophiles alike, these workshops are perfect for a French immersion classroom. All workshops are animated by our team of enthusiastic and professional instructors.  

These dance workshops use movement, language and music to discuss and explore stimulating themes that correspond too many objectives in the curriculums laid out by Alberta Education in the following programs: French, social studies, and physical education.

Parents and teachers who wish to offer this opportunity at their school can obtain more information by communicating directly with the association La Girandole. 

Give your students the unique opportunity to experience french langue, art and culture outside of the class room!
