Life at TFS
ROBERT started at TFS in Grade 1. As both of his
parents were committed to bilingualism, and his
father is from France, they valued the education that
TFS could offer.
A positive, upbeat student known for his perennial
smile, Robert will tell you that being able to speak
French defi nes him. He was a three-sport-a-year
athlete, one team per term, including soccer, basketball
and ultimate Frisbee. Just like his sister, Nicole '13,
he became the House Head of Volk. Always eager to
engage in the life of his school, Robert enthusiastically
helped to organize Spirit Week and participated in the
famed Dance Show, as a dancer and then as head of
choreography. He expanded his musical horizons by
learning to play both the clarinet and saxophone at
TFS, and is grateful for the opportunity to discover
new abilities. Robert volunteered at Habitat for
Humanity's ReStore, an experience that allowed
him to connect with and help new Canadians.
"TFS taught me
the importance
of community and
how it can make
a difference in
your life. Being
bilingual taught
me the importance
of culture."
