Interview with students from FOCUS School | Quebec Roots: Strengthening communities, The place I want to be
Participating students from FOCUS school discuss their experience and share their texts created as part of the Quebec roots project.
The flagship of the Blue Metropolis' educational programs is, without a doubt, Quebec Roots. Thanks to the financial support of the Ministry of Education, the TD bank group and la Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, Quebec Roots has given a voice to anglophone Quebec schoolchildren since 2005 and encouraged them to speak out on issues as serious as bullying and homophobia. The program is designed, first and foremost, to promote an interest in writing. It is aligned with the school curriculum in order to develop cross-disciplinary skills. The ultimate goal is to keep kids in school. It also fosters intercultural understanding through its exhibitions, by introducing texts and photographs produced by young Anglo-Quebecers to the general public.
