Happy National French Immersion Day!
Since 1972, French Immersion has empowered students across Canada to grow as curious, confident, and bilingual learners.
At Lakeland Catholic, we are proud to be part of this national journey - celebrating the many benefits of learning in both of Canada’s official languages.
Check out this video featuring students sharing what French Immersion means to them!
