In this special edition of Parenthèse, we feature a retrospective of the 40th annual conference of the Fédération des parents francophones, which took place November 22 and 23, 2019, at l’école Jules-Verne in Vancouver and the Executive Airport Plaza Hotel in Richmond.

On this occasion, the Fédération des parents team was pleased to welcome representatives of parents’ associations from across the province, as well as several community partners who joined us to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Francophone parents’ movement in British Columbia.

Learn about the highlights of this event, which was distinguished by a special tribute to a pioneer in French-language education in minority settings in British Columbia, and also by interactive workshops designed to meet participants' needs.
