We are beyond grateful for all the organizations and businesses for opening their doors for the Study & Stay PEI students to learn about job opportunities, living and settling in rural PEI.

On Friday, the 25th of April, a group of Study & Stay PEI Cohort 7 students joined Martin on a bus tour to explore the Southern region of PEI.

They visited Skmaqn-Port-la-Joye-Fort Amherst, Victoria by the Sea, the Confederation Bridge, EPTEK Art Centre, the Sunbank Facility, and the Riverdale Orchard & Cidery.

The Acadian Christmas Party 2025

Last Friday, our Study & Stay PEI students celebrated Christmas together with Collège de l'Île. With live music, traditional turkey dinner and South Asian food, our students had so much fun. It was a small break away from the end of semester exams and assignments. It was nice to see the spirit of Christmas bringing people of different cultures and religions together.

It was a night of festivities to end a busy year full of activities....
