- Activity book for educators with short activities for each of the previously mentioned themes, to be used by the educator if they deem it necessary.
- The preschool will also have the "Hold On to Life" activity (road safety prevention), which was also done last year. This activity takes place outside the school, at the time the children arrive, and in partnership with the school safety program. It does not affect school hours.

Each of these years will also have an activity book with short activities for each theme for each school year. The teacher will work on these themes when and if they deem it necessary. The goal is to always provide a reminder of each of these themes throughout the 4 years.
For the first cycle, the year ends with attendance at the Final Event – health closer to you, from May 4th to 8th. in the HDFF parking lot.
These projects will be evaluated using the PES Questionnaire, which will be sent at the end of the school year. This questionnaire will also include an evaluation of each class's Sexuality Education Project (which is the responsibility of each CT, Educators, and Head Teachers).
