Immerse yourself in a Franco-Albertan adventure!
For five unforgettable weeks, experience full French immersion in the heart of Alberta. Hosted by local families, participants will discover far more than a language: a culture, breathtaking landscapes, and powerful emotions.

• Explore the Wild West
  Hike at the foot of the majestic Rockies, swim in Abraham Lake, track signs of wildlife, and learn wolf-capture techniques from a specialist — here, nature speaks to you in French.
• Play and create outdoors
  Learn to handle and craft real boomerangs in unique workshops (yes, they will come back!), or let off steam with fun activities like a French-language escape room, laser tag, tennis, or ping-pong
• Experience Franco-Albertan culture
  Visit the Royal Alberta Museum, enjoy an artistic workshop at the Art Gallery of Alberta, go shopping at the famous West Edmonton Mall; enjoy an outing to the K-Days. Franco-Albertan artists will captivate you with stories of Alberta’s French-speaking pioneers, accompanied by music inspired by the rhythms of the Francophone West.
• Dance like never before
  Take part in French-Canadian dance workshops led by a professional Francophone instructor who will teach you lively steps suitable for all levels.
• A rich, human and festive immersion
  This program is more than a language stay: it’s a human adventure, a cultural journey, and a joyful celebration of Francophonie in all its diversity!
