1. Child or parent(s). They may admit but will first give admissions to those that belong to the catholic faith.

2. Advantage: Your kid goes to school in a christian environment. They try as much as possible to bring up kids morally. The school bus them to church once a week for like a 30min mass. They pray alot of times even when they go out for field trips.

3. Catholic schools are government schools too. However, It's believed that Catholic school educated kids fare better in test scores than the regular public school.

Hi,

Accounting and Finance is one job type that is available everywhere.

It also works with population. Alberta is 4m while Ontario is 13m. Head offices are also mostly in Toronto.

So you have to weigh Alberta with lower costs, higher wages but less opportunities with Ontario's more opportunities but lower wages and higher costs.

All the best.

Congratulations on ur landing..may you and your family be favoured at every step

They will.not admit a child that one of the parents are not catholic as you need to prove that and also baptismal card of your child

Do you mean that baptised kids with non-catholic parents will not be admitted?

for a child to be baptized, one parent must be Catholic

Hello Canadians in Calgary, I have some questions:

1. Is it required for a child to be baptised in Catholic church before he/she can be allowed to enrol in a public Catholic School?

2. How much of morals do public schools teach? Are they entirely liberal?

3. Are there outstanding advantages of public catholic schools over govt public schools?

2. I can't measure o egbon, but the Catholic school my kids attend is far from Liberal. It's very conservative.
In addition, I am an Anglican, so we had to wait for the schools to offer admissions to kids belonging to the catholic faith.

Hotstepper:

I guess they sometimes soften their policies depending on competition based off the number of applications they receive.

Thank you so much. Now I know there's a possibility for non-catholic children to be admitted in Catholic school. We pray to find same favour when the time comes.

Good day People !!! Please does anyone know a Nigerian immigrant with Canadian Registered Safety Professional (CRSP) certification?

Amen!

The webinars are so helpful. In fact, I was added to a WhatsApp group, where info is always shared.
Just yesterday, someone was giving out good furniture for free somewhere in Ontario.
Get advice and assistance with resume and cover letter.
Most especially, links and links to research to make the transition easier.

I totally agree on the hand luggage thing. Part of the repacking involved buying the smallest GMG and putting my overnight bag in it along with some shoes so I had two hand luggages and a handbag (this was done on the advice of the ET staff).
In ADD, the handle of the gmg ripped off. I reattached the overnight bag to the carry-on luggage and then bought a backpack in the airport for 96USD
I'[b]ve kuku dashed the bag out because every time I see it, I get chest pain ;[/b]D

You must chop your first winter "carless".
You can not drive until you pass a road test after one year. You can start studying for your class 7 learners so that you can take the test as soon as you land.
You should be driving next year May

Send a pM if you want the study material...Alberta o!

If you're not getting hired as a Management trainee in one of these banks, then you must possess a skill relevant to the bank. Easiest way to navigate this is to think about the guys that work in Bank Head offices in Nigeria, what skills do they possess? Risk management, audit, Data analysis/MIS etc. If you're selling yourself as a fund transfer or teller, then you may have to settle for Financial advisor as a means of getting in, and then rising through the ranks.

PS: Banking hub + maximum opportunities in this field is Toronto...

adesbaba:




Hmmn...am so grateful for the reply sir....I optioned Calgary cos I felt its cheaper to settle there due to cheaper cost of living ,buying house in future n the likes...compared with Toronto where cost of living is huge.....so I felt probably one could get Finance/bank jobs too in Calgary...


As per the management trainee...I have done much work on scotiabank ,CIBC ,TDbank n RBC programs n I saw that they have something like our own graduate trainee programme here where you choose either corporate finance,wealth mgt ,n the likes with trainee fr 12-18 months ....and also internships....how do u see this

Its been a while on nairaland. Its not easy taking care of two babies alone so my hands are always full one way or the other.
Late landing gist:

So we left the shores of Naija on a fateful day in February 2019. It was my first time on an airplane as I had this phobia for it. Myself, hubby and two angels. Good byes to family was a little tough for me. My mom was no where to be found at this time, I just knew she was crying somewhere. God bless her and keep her in Jesus name. So we had a little delay and we were served snacks. We went with Egypt Air, destination Toronto Ontario.

All bags were over the allowable weight but we were allowed some few kgs extra. So we had seven 26kg luggage instead of 23, four 10kg hand luggage instead of 8kg thereabout sha and finally my brethren, 2 car seats. One of the airline supervisors thereafter saw us with a backpack, hand bag, laptop bag and school bag which we carried alongside the others so in short, the guy said he won't allow us on the plane and we had to let go one hand luggage. Bags were not searched.

We boarded, got a bassinet seat and off we flew. Being a resilient jjc, I was calm through the journey. The food was good surprisingly as I had read otherwise. Even my baby got packaged cereal but they were stingy with water. Landing in Cairo was a little bumpy. We met a Nigerian couple and their kids also going to Toronto at this time. Throughout the journey, my two year old slept during take off and landing so he was calm to a good extent while my baby was just playing away and getting precious smiles from other passengers.

We met a long line of asylum seekers or so in Cairo cos looking at them, they obviously couldn't have applied through any of the processes we went through. So we proceeded into the next plane, a bigger one. The forever 12 hours flight to Toronto was smooth and I didn't even know when we landed, prompting passengers clap offering for the pilot.

While our documents were being checked, may I mention that a naija man and his partner were denied entry. I don't know why so I won't comment too much on this. The man was praying when we left him. I hope he finds peace. Anyways, we located our plenty luggage, hired a portal, submitted goods to follow and found my bro and wifey. I don't think I used one minute outside in the cold loading our bags into the vehicle before I started shivering. Interestingly, the next day we landed, I fell terribly ill. I hardly fall ill so it was really tough on me but I thank God I had my family to take care of the kids. I was so weak I couldn't eat, then on one of the days, I woke up to see my boy trying to push a spoon of yogurt into my mouth. He had probably heard them begging me to eat and wanted to feed mummy. What a blessing.

We began the necessary documentations and job hunt right away. By March, I got a job with one Insurance company as I was getting tired of staying at home. Also that same March, I got a good offer with a Bank.

So this is June, I have held my own with hubby back in naija since by His wonderful grace. There were few times I was really burdened with settling but thank God its over. The Lord is good and faithful.

I have not moved around much but let me drop few learning points especially for us moms alone with God:
Networking will get you your desired job faster. Try connect with as much people as you can. The thread is filled with so much info which should help you get it right
Probability that you will achieve set goals here is high cos the environment is one that will help you to succeed
Try register early enough for your written and road test especially. I know some people are driving gurus but taking the test in a familiar environment helped me.
The first few months will be tough, but ease off the stress by reaching out to trusted people for help. I am not shy to ask for one and I've met angels everywhere who have favoured me
If you work irregular hours and you have young children, prayerfully look for approved home day care centers. Those ones are more flexible and cheaper. Late pick up fee is real here.
Be prayerful. Its hard to get lost since you have a lot going
Be careful with spending but I will tell you for free, if that thing is going to make your life easier and its legal, get it!
When you shop, don't start converting cad to dollar. Naira that does not have value
Come with enough money o, you will need more than your POF. I paid 1,900 CAD creche fee for just one month for my two kids and you wont get subsidy till after the 6 months waiting period in Ontario. That's if you are coming to Ontario. I am eagerly waiting for next year tax session to recoup something.

I would have had more to contribute but I am already forgetting those early days.

@thecongo, I appreciate you. He was of help when I was in London ON. I pray the Lord will reward you and keep you from evil in Jesus name.
To everyone, we took a bold step to move out of our comfort zones, may we not count any loss in Jesus name.

Finally, to me @wholesomegrace, highly favoured of the most High, recipient of Jehovah's divine mercies over and again, I Welcome myself Home and I declare, that to all You gave me, I will lose no one in Jesus mighty name

Let Somebody shout Hallelujah!!!!!

They will. My wife is catholic and am not a Christian. We only presented our wedding certificate issued by her church. We have 2 kids registered.
