NEWS RELEASE
CONSEIL SCOLAIRE CATHOLIQUE NOUVELON
****************************
During the week of Sept. 21 to 25, students and staff at École catholique Georges Vanier (Elliot Lake) and École Saint-Joseph (Blind River) displayed their Franco-Ontarian pride.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic made it impossible to gather or participate in a group flag-raising ceremony, Franco-Ontarians Day was celebrated though a series of virtual activities offered to Francophone students in the province.
In addition, Georges Vanier and Saint-Joseph students had the chance to display with pride green and white clothing in their classroom while taking part in stimulating activities highlighting Franco-Ontarian culture.
The COVID-19 pandemic will not prevent students and staff from proudly celebrating their identity and their belonging to the Francophonie in Ontario.
