CFOO

In Français, it's time for another CFOO (Le Club Fabuleux des Orateurs et Oratrices)! 

This is a public speaking "club" that will help students improve their oral French skills through short speeches.
For this presentation, students must choose one of the five Research options: information about an animal, information about a country, facts about a person, information about an environmental issue or reporting on a sports event. They will then prepare their short oral presentation, fulfilling all of the criteria (listed on the page they have in their binder).
Students should also keep in mind eye contact, volume and expression during their presentation.

The CFOO Presentations will take place on Wednesday, February 15th. 

The Best Book Ever!

Students nominated their favourite books and the eight most popular choices became our finalists in The Best Book Ever competition!
Throughout the month, we'll be debating about these books to determine the ultimate winner. Stay tuned!

Spirit Week!

Happy We Mustache you to be kind to your and others Day!
