Visit to St. Benedict School

I had the pleasure of visiting St. Benedict School, the OCSB's newest school, located in Ottawa South. I went there with the purpose of looking at colours, designs, and furniture in order to see, first-hand, various possibilities for our new addition at St. Pat's High School. Julia Fournier, our curriculum leader of math and science, and superintendent Manon Seguin joined me on this exciting visit. Thanks so much to principal Lynne Charette for hosting us.
