Meet Sawem (pronouned Sah-Weem), QCRC's new Program Assistant!

Born and raised in Tunisia, Sawem moved to Ontario in 2015 and recently made Quebec her home. She brings creativity, strong communication skills, and the occasional batch of chocolate chip cookies to the QCRC team. Passionate about creating engaging learning experiences, she believes learning should be accessible, enjoyable, and inspiring for everyone. Her philosophy; knowledge is food for the soul, and everyone deserves a taste that suits their palate.

You'll undoubtedly be seeing a lot more of Sawem on QCRC's socials in the coming months. Please join us in giving Sawem a warm welcome!

There’s still time to join the Snail Mail Club, but registration closes May 8th!

This fun and meaningful program gives children the chance to connect through handwritten letters, creativity, and community. Participants receive a kit with everything they need to get started, and this year, QCRC is excited to partner with Yamaska Literacy Council in Cowansville, giving kids from the Quebec City area the opportunity to connect with new friends a little farther away!

Already participated before? We’d love to welcome you back! Returning participants can register again and we’ll happily restock your child’s kit with the essentials.

Don’t miss out on this chance to create, connect, and spread a little joy through snail mail!

Happy Canadian Children’s Book Week!

April 26th – May 2nd is CCBW and it’s a time to celebrate the magic of stories and Canadian authors, illustrators, and storytellers who bring them to life.

This year’s theme, “This Is Our Home, These Are Our Stories / Nos histoires chez nous,” reminds us how powerful it is for children and teens to see themselves reflected in the books they read.
