Are these drop-in, or do I need to register?
It varies by program, and the page only says which is which where a listing's own words say so — the Good to know section names the drop-in and registration listings it found. When it doesn't say, the listing link is the place to check.
What's free for school-age kids in Gatineau?
None of the current listings carries a free tag in the feed, so check each listing for its price — we don't mark anything free that the source doesn't.
