Student Paintings at the Montreal General Hospital

Students of Mrs. Romanuk's Ethics class (412-03) are given a Big Thank You for having been the first participants from a school in creating paintings for the Montreal General Hospital. On September 28th, Dale Perks a registered nurse working in the surgery clinic came to Heritage along with a reporter from the hospital newspaper to discuss the implication of having the students contribute to the project while interviewing several of them The student's were clear in their message that they were happy to not only have their work on MUHC walls, but that they enjoyed the notion of pleasing patients by creating a more interesting environment.


Many of the students taking an art class now in secondary 5 have expressed an interest in making more paintings for the hospital this year - A great way for students to become active community members - wouldn't you say?
