In an effort to reach out the larger community, the East End school known for strong environmental activism and accomplishments paired up Grade 4 students with kids from the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve daycare for a full-day event that promoted awareness of Dante\u2019s commitment to the planet as a Brundtland school and activities that encourage literacy. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of these kids come from disadvantaged backgrounds,\u201d said Dante principal Daniela Lattanzio. \u201cWe wanted to connect with them in a meaningful way.\u201d Paring Grade 4 students with the francophone youngsters was a piece of cake for the Dante students, as all are bilingual, and most trilingual, thanks to a wildly popular integrated Italian program. <\/p>\n<p>The 21 kids from CPE Casse Noisette were thrilled with the experience she said, and this will surely be the first of many such special exchanges that reach across territory, language and generations. \u201cIt\u2019s especially important as we share our green message with them,\u201d that is, the environmental commitment that Dante has become famous for, from waste-free lunch days that eliminate up to eight full garbage bags per day, to its composting and recycling initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>That was followed by a visit from Rosemont High School students, whose renowned music program brought an impressive team of talented young musicians to perform for the 375 Dante kids and staff. The Dante students also staged their own Christmas concert; two in fact, says Lattanzio, to accommodate all the parents and grandparents. It was all done as part of Dante\u2019s participation in the CTV Spirit of Giving campaign, that collects food for Montreal\u2019s hungry. <\/p>\n<p>If that wasn\u2019t enough, the next week featured a Santa\u2019s breakfast, turkey lunch for students and staff and a movie day. \u201cIt\u2019s a great way to finish off the term for a group of children who work very hard,\u201d said Lattanzio. \u201cThey really deserved this and this holiday, and then we\u2019ll come back and get to work!\u201d<br \/>\n  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[&#8216;GoogleAnalyticsObject&#8217;]=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){<br \/>\n  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),<br \/>\n  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)<br \/>\n  })(window,document,&#8217;script&#8217;,&#8217;\/\/www.google-analytics.com\/analytics.js&#8217;,&#8217;ga&#8217;);<\/p>\n<p>  ga(&#8216;create&#8217;, &#8216;UA-45892555-1&#8217;, &#8216;auto&#8217;);<br \/>\n  ga(&#8216;send&#8217;, &#8216;pageview&#8217;);<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Joel Ceausu www.thesuburban.com It\u2019s been a busy month for the Dante kids.
