French Immersion – Help needed!
Since 2002, Canadian Parents for French (CPF) Hamilton-Wentorth has been working to advocate for, promote and encourage French immersion in our community with considerable success. French enrolment is up, new school sites have been opened and children from both the public and separate school boards can now access bussing to their schools. Click here for the full story.

French Immersion Survey deadline is extended to Wednesday, November 16, 2011 - 4:00 pm. The survey is available at: www.hwdsb.on.ca/programs/fi or Click here for a copy. NEW

More students will get a chance to learn Canada’s official second language thanks to the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board’s recent decision to look at expanding French Immersion to the Ancaster community. Click here for further details.

IB program at Westdale- Can French Immersion students do this without sacrificing French designation?

IB program will be occurring at Westdale
Here is the website for the IBO program. www.ibo.org
There is no such concept as a French Immersion IB program. IB is IB. Ultimately, the IB is not in competition with our school's Languages nor French Immersion Programs...instead the opportunity for the student is one that embodies the true essence of being a life-long learner and critical thinker in an international world. Again, French Immersion students who go into the IB program are not in French Immersion IB (there is no such thing) they are in IB continuing their language focus in the French A program. Their other courses are not taken in French.
