This year, we will be celebrating La Semaine de la Francophonie with Killarney Heights Public School in Week 8. We are hoping to follow the above calendar. Please note that:

  • The open morning for parents and grand-parents will be on Thursday the 19th: 
    • open classes in Session 1 for La Grande Lessive
    • French performance in Session 2 in the Hall
  • We are still awaiting confirmation for the Tuck Shop croissants and the French Book Fair.

 

Lunch time : This year again, Julian and Stefan will invite Year 2-6 students to play hockey with them in the hall (one year level per day). If you want to run another activity for the Junior and/or the Senior students, just let Caroline or Marilyne know so that we can add it to our calendar.

 

Dress up day on Tuesday the 17th: Students will wear the colours of the francophone country they are representing on that day.

Action : Each Year Level needs to choose a francophone country.  YLCs , please record it in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gB862gxiOc4GDmK3KRjzIrYq2HJX3HXmXkHyhyITcgY/edit?tab=t.0
