Registrations for the PICAI courses continue this for the next few Saturdays, from 9:00 am to noon. Open to those of Italian origin ages kindergarten and up, the program is subsidized in part by the Italian government as a service to families of Italian origin who live outside the peninsula. The program, which runs from September to April, is taught by fully qualified and experienced teachers who have a long tradition of quality instruction behind them. Although it is sponsored by the Italian government, PICAI is responsible for the financial management of the program and as such asks for registration fees of $180 for adults, $95 for first child/student and $85 for each subsequent family member. Please note that agendas are free. The venue for the registrations and the courses which serve the western end of Laval island is Laval Junior High School, 3200 Souvenir Road in Chomedey. For more detailed information, please call director Romolo Chiarella at (514) 249-4967.
