The district's second annual French Festival was a celebration of the French language and culture, drawing students and families from across the district.Ìý

Attendees were treated to an immersive experience in French culture through a range of workshops and activities. From chef demonstrations and beading workshops, to balloon animals and face painting, there was something for everyone. The festival's lively atmosphere was further enhanced by maple syrup taste testing, musical performances, dance workshops, circus activities and drumming sessions. Food trucks offering delectable treats such as crepes, beaver tails and poutine added to the culinary delights of the day.

In conjunction with the festival, the Concours d’art Oratoire, a French public speaking competition organized by Canadian Parents for French, showcased the French-speaking prowess of 44 students in Grades 6-12. The top 14 winners from the district will proudly represent the °µÍøTV at the provincial Concours d’art Oratoire on May 4, hosted at the SFU Surrey Campus.
