TFS and the Francophonie
An international school in Canada firmly rooted in the global Francophonie
In 1962, TFS was the first French immersion school to open its doors in Canada. As a partner of the network of French Ministry of Education schools, TFS has offered an intercultural view of the world from the start, while promoting the emergence of a Canadian national consciousness rooted in both official languages.
