Supporting parents in helping their child learn French

Parents and guardians of Conseil scolaire catholique Nouvelon students will have the opportunity to follow two French as a second language programs starting at the end of the month.

Board communication director Paul de la Riva says the Beginner One program will run for 15 weeks and the Beginner Conversation program will run for eight weeks.

He adds both programs are online and begin on March 27th hosted by Collège Boréal.

De la Riva says the cost of the courses is covered by the board’s Parent Involvement Committee, but space is limited so he suggests registering as soon as possible.

These French as a second language programs are of interest to families where one of the parents is a non-Francophone and who strive to offer a high level of bilingualism to their child by registering them in a French-language Catholic school.

Parents and guardians of CSC Nouvelon students can register in Collège BorĂ©al’s French as a Second Language program by calling 705-560-6673, ext. 2014 or by email at [email protected] .
