Notre Dame: En Francais
Some of our French Language students were challenged to write a '6 word poem' in French... the inspiration is a legendary story where author Earnest Hemingway' wrote a famous 6 word poem at a dinner party... below are some of the results!
2020 est nul, n’est-ce pas?
Mon chien a mangé mes devoirs. Madame, je peux pas t’entendre. Je suis si fatiguée et confusée. Madame, mon wifi ne fonctionne pas. |
Bloqué en maison, avec ma caméra.
Bienvenue à McDonalds, que voudrais-tu ? Madame, c'est temps pour une sieste. Qui a vu cette pandémie venir? Travaille maintenant pour réussir plus tard |
Vivre la vie, quand tu peux.
Essayer toujours mais, ne réussir jamais. Peu de gens voient la vérité. Un visage souriant, une åme brisée. |
Co-op In An Age of COVID

September and October were very busy months in the Co-operative Education Department! Although school looks a lot different, the co-op teachers (Mr. Barbati and Mrs. Gatza) have been able to provide an excellent program for all Quadmester one co-op students. Co-op students had an intensive two-week pre-employment session that included topics such as resume writing, cover letters, interview skills, labour laws and workplace safety. Mr. Barbati was able to develop new and exciting physical and virtual opportunities for students as many businesses have gone virtual – and they’ve invited our co-op students to work with them. In addition to new virtual placements, there are placements in the community where students can be placed. Of course, the safety of the (physical) co-op placement is paramount when matching a student with an employer.
It is exciting and encouraging to see our students actively participating in the workplace on a daily basis in placements that include the construction technology, electrical technology, computer technology, automotive technology, audio installation, medicine, teaching, the arts, science, retail, veterinary science, accounting, business administration, medicine, pharmacology, and cosmetology. Not only will students benefit from these experiences gained outside the classroom, but each student will have regular performance appraisals documented in an individualized SCELP (Student Co-operative Education Learning Plan) completed by their employers and teacher to further develop valuable employment skills.
