Hi Kim,
This is my first time trying to post to the group - so I hope it works!
A group of like minded LCs and educators in Ottawa created a resource for local breastfeeding information and one part was for educators. If you go on the website: ottawabreastfeeds.ca and look under resources - there is an educator section with a bunch of links to programs (from a variety of sources) from kindergarten through to secondary levels. I don't think any are bilingual but it would be a good place to start.

I work in the community setting in New Brunswick in eastern Canada.
We are a Bilingual province ( English and French ) and have been given an opportunity to provide consultation to the Department of Education to help them design and meet outcomes related to Healthy Eating in their health classes .
This will be for grades 3-5. We of course will be starting with breastfeeding as the norm for our species etc etc etc.
We are need of good activities/strategies for this age group. I thought I would start here.
The only drawback is we need to have these materials in both English and French. If we find a great resource in English we will proceed with getting permission to translate into French.
Can any of you point me in the right direction?
Thanks so much
