Students

Our school is purposely small (a maximum of 200 students) so that the students have a chance to get to know each other. Students mingle with other classes near their age group at recess, and upper-grade students share enrichment classes across grades on Friday afternoons.

The 4th and 5th grade students usually enjoy an end-of-year trip, sometimes a local camping trip, and more recently, a class trip to France! The students spend the school year getting to know their classmates at the host school, studying the area they will visit, and raising money for the trip.

Here are some 4th and 5th grader’s comments about their trip to Paris.

• J’ai aimé tout ce qu’on a fait à Paris, mais le plus intéressant c’était le Louvre.
• La Mona Lisa est très petite, alors que tout le monde pensait  que c’était  très grand. -Marc Moi, j’ai aimé Notre-Dame, il y a des belles peintures !
• Moi j’ai bien aimé l’arc de Triomphe parce que du haut on peut voir beaucoup de choses : les Champs Elysées, Sacré Cœur, La Tour Eiffel...
• L’arc de Triomphe était très grand et il y avait 284 marches à monter !
