Welcome to Our New Website!
Do you smell that? That’s new-website smell. It’s similar to new-car smell just a bit more binary. Luckily, you won’t find any more bad computer jokes on our website. However, you will find amazing resources for parents, educators, and Francophiles for helping young Canadians learn and use French.
Concours virtuel – Ensemble à distance
Concours virtuel is BACK. Last spring, over 900 students from across Canada submitted videos en français and we’re coming back for more in 2021. Tell us about everything from your favourite hobby to current events… we want to learn all about what students are passionate about!
Goodnight Bags
If you’re the parent of a young child, you know a good bedtime routine is imperative. That’s why CPF created an awesome new resource for families who have children aged 3-5 years old. We combined learning French with a bedtime routine to bring you the CPF Good Night Bag!

“Bilingualism serves as a cornerstone of our nation. It is an essential element that provides a durable foundation. It must not and cannot be shunted aside.
