Semaine de la Francophonie 

We had a wonderful week experiencing French culture in different ways.  We welcomed a French speaking Metis Elder, Roger Dallaire, Franco-Albertan artist, we participated in a virtual sugar shack, we crowned French speaking royalty each day and we wove red, blue and white bracelets for remind ourselves to speak French.  Thank you to the committee for organizing such a wonderful week and to the parent council for supporting us financially and with volunteers. 

Stay tuned for our re-scheduled Winter Carnaval, Manie Musical and our annual trip Landmark Cinemas for a French movie.
