Register your child or teen for Boîte à lunch Centre-Sud !

Registration is officially OPEN for our after-school cooking workshops, Boîte à lunch Centre-Sud !

Boîte à Lunch Centre-Sud is a free after-school program that invites children and teens in the Centre-Sud neighborhood into the kitchen to learn how to cook while creating a tasty meal that they can eat at home or enjoy for lunch the next day at school.
