This educational project helps students and their parents learn about how to eat healthy foods, protect the environment and save money! This program is set out for the Francophone and Anglophone primary schools of northwestern New Brunswick, but we encourage everyone from all over the world to consult our vast array of online resources and start packing a zero-waste and healthy lunch box and snack today.
In order to provide primary school teachers with educational and interactive resources, an online educational kit was developed. Its content targets several Specific Curriculum Outcomes (SCOs) of study programs established by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development. This website features fun and dynamic educational videos in its “Animation Corner”, suggestions of activities in its “Activities Corner”, as well as promotional tools such as posters, banners and promotional items in its “Resources Corner”.

The commitment of our volunteers represents a wealth for our community because it widely contributes to its cultural, economic, sports, social and community development. Hence, the municipality offers present and continuing support to its volunteers because it recognizes that if Edmundston is a pleasant place to live, establish a family or an enterprise, it is largely because of the generosity of its volunteers. On this page you will access information on volunteerism in Edmundston as well as the contact information for the municipality’s Community Living/Volunteering and Organizations Coordinator.
