Francofun Day really did get fun and competitive with the help of board games at St. Charles College on March 20, 2014.  The students celebrated their French language and culture by playing The Game of Life/Destins, French Pictionary and Tic Tac Boom in teacher Anthony Malafarina’s Immersion class. 

“This forced the students to converse and have fun while thinking about French language studies” said Malafarina.    

The Franco Fun day was celebrated today by all Sudbury Catholic Schools in either Core French or Immersion classes.

In order to recognize the importance of March 3, the official World Wildlife Day, students created informational posters to spread awareness in the school about the issues surrounding the world’s flora and fauna. They then braved the cold to form the letters WWD, while holding up their posters. These photos were sent to Hivees who then compiled all pictures and videos globally into one compilation for the students to view.
