We just moved here. Is there any Chinese learning program for kids? If not, I'd like to start a pioneer program so my daughter keeps learning Chinese.
If I do start this program, would any non-Chinese parents be interested in sending their kids to learn Chinese? I probably will do an after school class for alternate days, just to work with my daughter's upcoming JK school hours.

In Mississauga, we have at least 2 Chinese schools on Saturday mornings. It's done in the Dufferin Separate school board. There should be one in Oakville too.
It's part of the Heritage language program.
For Halton region the link is

No Mandarin school/program in Oakville. They have one in Cantonese. I guess I will start a pioneer program then.
