It’s always hard to say goodbye…
It was great having you in our group this semester. We sure are going to miss you! Wishing you all the best!

Another great semester! It’s always nice to see our students enjoying their stay and sharing their great Canadian experiences with us! Thank you to the participants who submitted blogs,slideshows or/and videos!

Our XC skiing day was a great success today! Perfect excise for a cold day!

We are looking for families to host an international student in February 2024. Host families are needed for 3-month and 5-month stays, as well as for respite coverage for a few days or a few weeks.
Hosting is great for retirees, single parents, and families who would like to:
✅ Learn about other cultures and languages
✅ Make lifelong friends from around the world
✅ Receive $1,400 compensation per student per month
✅ Create unforgettable memories
✅ Make a difference in the life of a young person and in your community
