TORONTO – In many ways, Loretto College School hasn’t changed at all in the past 100 years.

TORONTO - When Diane Vautour developed a yearbook course that incorporated photography at Loretto College two years ago she immediately saw the potential benefits that photography could bring to her students.

So she applied for a SpeakUp grant from the provincial government to start a photography club at the all-girls Catholic school in Toronto. The SpeakUp grants are given to students and teachers in support of programs intended to engage students within the school and wider community.

And the photography club, which is preparing for its first public exhibition, has certainly exceeded these expectations.
