Students, staff, and families from across St. Clair Catholic gathered at Our Lady Help of Christians Church in Wallaceburg on Thursday to commemorate the beginning of a new school year.

The annual Welcome Back Mass provided an opportunity for school communities to come together in faith and look ahead to an exciting year of learning and growth.

St. Clair Catholic’s French Immersion schools were a sea of green and white as they celebrated Franco-Ontarian Day on Sept. 25.

Franco-Ontarian Day honors the rich history, culture, and contributions of Ontario’s Francophone community.

On Wednesday, St. Clair Catholic students and staff had the opportunity to experience and honour the harvest season at the Corn Moon Powwow, hosted at St. Elizabeth Catholic School, Wallaceburg.
