Learning Kirundi means claiming a language, a culture and a pride.
We pass on Kirundi, Burundian culture and Burundian values to the children of the diaspora, so they grow up with joy, confidence and pride in their roots.
A path for every age.
Four groups, each with its own goals and pace. Classes are live, in small groups, on Ottawa time.
Passing on a heritage.
Urumuri Académie grew out of a deep wish: to pass Kirundi on to the children of the Burundian diaspora, so they can talk with their family, discover the richness of their culture, and grow up proud of where they come from.
Let us dream of a future where our Burundian children growing up in Canada can stay connected to their roots through our mother tongue, Kirundi.
Far more than a language.
At Urumuri Académie we don't only teach a language. We help every child build a lasting bond with their family, their culture and their identity.
Give your child the gift of a language, a culture and a heritage.
Enrolling takes a few minutes. You pick the time slot that works for your family.
