  • COVID-Clean – we are committed to following guidelines provided by the province
  • Teachers are in control of the environment – we will work with you to ensure the virtual lessons encourage proper distancing and no contact between participants
  • All supplies used for workshops (paper, rulers, and pencils) to be provided by the student or the school to ensure that there is no physical contact 
  • Paper airplane activities are ideal as the paper is fresh from the package
  • The Interpreter will contact the school one day before to inquire about any health policy changes that could impact the nature of the program delivery and content
