French Immersion Information SessionsFrench Immersion is a proven way of acquiring excellent language skills in French. The French Immersion program at HWDSB is specifically designed for parents who do not speak French, but want their children to speak both official languages. The program is open to all students in Hamilton-Wentworth entering Grade 1 in September 2020 (born in 2014). The information sessions are planned for parents considering French Immersion as an option for their child. View the dates and locations on the French Immersion Information Sessions Flyer. HWDSB uses an application process for entry into French Immersion. To be eligible to enter French Immersion, your child must have been born in 2014. Our registration process is done online through our website at www.hwdsb.on.ca/fi. Here you can find the important dates for registration and more information about the process. The registration processes will also be discussed at the information sessions.
