On May 28, 2025 (Armenian Independence Day), to commemorate the First Armenian Canadian Heritage Month Celebration in the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) after its approval by the Board of Trustees at the March 27 Board meeting, St. Joan of Arc Catholic Academy's senior students attended an engaging educational visit to the Armenian Community Centre.
With Memorial Site visits and workshops, the day provided students varied opportunities to immerse themselves in Armenian heritage and culture, learning about the history and genocide. The students were particularly engaged with the alphabet activity and showcased their talents, creating pieces of art.
With appreciation to the Armenian Community Centre, TCDSB Community Relations Department, Jodelyn Huang, and Raymond Sarkissian and Luisa Fracassi, teacher supervisors for supporting this opportunity for our participating students.
