International Languages Program

The Wellington Catholic District School Board is committed to offering an international languages program for the community with the goal of promoting culture through learning a new language. Students attending Junior Kindergarten to grade 8 have the opportunity for academic instruction in languages other than English and French. Saturday morning during the school year and consecutive mornings for three weeks during the summer, students may learn and/or maintain a language and develop an appreciation for cultural diversity.
