Last week students in Grade 9 to 11 French competed in the speech contest ‘Concours d’Art Oratoire’. Judges and students voted for the best speeches at the end of the event filled with excellent speech presentations from students.
This contest is a longstanding public speaking competition for youth who are learning French in school hosted by Canadian Parents for French. It’s a great way to honour their many hours of hard work and to celebrate official language bilingualism in Canada. The contest is open to students in every province and territory and in a wide range of age/grade categories and French abilities. Thousands of students participate every year in communities big and small, for the opportunity to win prizes or scholarships to postsecondary institutions.
Please join us in congratulating the following students who will represent our school at the Provincial Concours in May!
- Daniel A (Grade 9) « Quels sont les effets de la pollution de la terre sur notre sante? What are the affects of earth pollution on our health? »
- Leia O (Grade 10) « Les réseaux sociaux. Social Network. »
- Aryana S (Grade 11) « Comment Malala a inspiré les filles musulmanes du monde entier. How Malala inspired Muslim girls around the world. »
