Baby and me classes are structured for young children and their care giver. We will learn encouraging phrases and songs for our youngsters. Classes go for six weeks.

Bodéwadmi Basics I classes are structured for beginning learners. We will learn to listen and respond to spoken Neshnabémwen as well as how to use the written resources available.

Brown Bag Bodéwadmi is a language roundtable created with staff in mind but not exclusively so. It is an excellent time for questions and comments on all things language.
