In the Community Learning Centres (CLC) network, we often struggle to explain what we do. That’s because the CLC is like an idea blowing across the province showing up in myriad ways. Here we share the stories so that you can see it and believe it too – CLCs make a huge difference to student engagement and the vitality of English Linguistic Minority communities across Quebec.

The River Project at RRHS

Work Oriented Training Program students at Richmond Regional High School used the local St. Francis River as a subject for learning about science, working together and making a difference in their community.

Throughout the year, Students cleaned up the riverbank on Earth Day 2013, collecting 10 bags of trash.  In partnership with local ecological organizations, the students built birdhouses to attract wildlife and raised trout eggs, releasing over 200 fish into the river.
