The French Department is planning a trip to Quebec City and Montreal for May 2024. The trip is open to grade 8 and 9 immersion students (our current grade 7 and 8 early and late immersion classes who will be in grade 8 and 9 next year).

There has been an overwhelming expression of interest and enrollment is now open. There is currently a cap of 32 spots available. Any student registering will be put on a wait list. This doesn’t mean we are at capacity. It means that your child is waitlisted pending approval from the administration. They may be under the cap of 32. When approved, you will receive notification.
