Wise Law

Grade 11 Law students visited the Superior Court of Ontario and Osgoode Hall, with Ms. Brett, on April 24, 2012. We were able to observe courtroom procedures, meet with a judge, and hear testimony given in a murder trial. We took a short tour of Osgoode Hall and its impressive Law library

Holocaust Centre and the Art of Samuel Bak

Grade 10 History and Grade 11 Genocide Studies students visited the Columbus Centre and the Holocaust Centre on April 27 accompanied by Ms. Brett and Ms. Tager. The Columbus Centre hosted an exhibit of the art of Holocaust survivor Samuel Bak.  

At the Holocaust Centre students met with Simon Saks who shared with us his experiences during the Holocaust. Both Mr. Bak and Mr. Saks were eight-year-old boys when WWII started. Students were fortunate to be able to hear about this terrible time in history from an actual eye-witness.
