The Anglophone Section Dictation is an annual tradition which takes place at the Journée de l'Amité, in the convivial setting of an Irish Pub set up and staffed by the Anglophone Section PTA.
People of all ages compete to write down the challenging dictation, which is in English and becomes increasingly difficult as it goes on. Prizes are awarded in different age categories, with the adult category divided into bilingual and non-bilingual. After the prizes were awarded, everyone went out to the courtyard to sing Christmas carols in English.
Congratulations to all the parents and students who competed and thanks you to the teachers who read the dictation and corrected the answers. And (once again!) a big thanks to our dedicated PTA for providing a wonderful pub experience.

Last night, Anglophone Section families and teachers gathered at La Tour to celebrate Thanksgiving.
Following a speech by Head of Section Mr. Slade, 4eme students read aloud Haikus about gratitude written by students in 4EA and 4AA and a traditional Native American Prayer. (In 4eme, both the Anglophone Studies and Advanced English programs focus on U. S. History and Literature.)
Thank you to everyone who brought food for the Thanksgiving meal, and a big shout-out to our generous PTA for providing the refreshments and the decorations!
