New Welcome Centre for Newcomers to Canada

TR Leger Immigrant Services has relocated to 600 McConnell Avenue

TR Leger Immigrant Services has relocated to 600 McConnell Avenue (the former Immaculate Conception school) and officially opened its doors earlier this week.“Our new location is more central and easier to find,” says Tania Stover, Vice-Principal and Manager of Literacy & Language Services with the TR Leger School. “The building allows us to consolidate our immigrant services on the second floor, and our alternative education services on the main floor. The new arrangement allows for easy communication and teamwork.”

TR Leger Immigrant Services is located in the same building as the TR Leger School of Adult, Alternative and Continuing Education. The TR Leger School offers a number of employment preparation programs, literacy preparation and Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) credit programs.
