BLEU BLANC BOUGE IN ACTION

The goal of the BLEU BLANC BOUGE IN ACTION program is to offer elementary school children an opportunity to enjoy physical activities within an organized framework, to adopt healthy lifestyles, to socialize and to develop teamwork – all in a secure and safe environment.

The Montreal Canadiens Children’s Foundation teamed up with Hockey Canada, Hockey Québec and kinesiology students from the Université de Montréal to inaugurate ice skating clinics for first- and second-grade students in the Saint-Michel and Montréal-Nord communities. Seven clinics were offered each week to about 100 students of Léonard-de-Vinci and Le Carignan schools during the winter of 2011. The enthusiasm shown by the management and teachers at schools that benefited from this project and the skating skills that kids developed are an indication that this program must be extended in 2012.
