Welcome to the Centre William-Hingston
The Centre’s mission is to facilitate the integration of non–French-speaking immigrants and other adults by teaching the French language. An expert staff supports students at every stage of the learning process and our course (level 4) is an acceptable proof of your language skills when applying for Canadian citizenship.
The Centre is located in the heart of the multiethnic Park Extension neighbourhood, in a complex shared with a number of other organizations. Among them are Barthélemy-Vimont Elementary School and several municipal facilities, including a library, an exhibition hall for the borough cultural centre and an indoor swimming pool. A childcare centre, a day care and numerous community organizations complete the picture.
