French Immersion Program

Students from Kindergarten through to Grade 6 follow a French Immersion Program. Learning a second language at an early developmental age strengthens a student's overall academic skills as he or she can make strong connections between the languages they are speaking on a daily basis. (Some of these classes may be taught in English in order to meet the requirements set by the Ministry of Education)

Students begin their first cycle speaking and learning only French in the classroom. In cycles 2 and 3 the percentage of French decreases.
