🇨🇦 A look back at the trip some of our high school students took last year, exploring Canadian universities, from Montréal to Sherbrooke, with a stop in Québec City.
On the programme: visits to some of the country's most beautiful campuses, McGill, Concordia, Laval, Bishop's and Sherbrooke, each one offering a real immersion into North American university life, complete with swimming pools, ice rinks, state-of-the-art laboratories, sports fields and inspiring study spaces.
The trip was also a chance to reconnect with IS33 alumni, now studying at these prestigious institutions. Several of them had chosen to pursue their higher education in Canada, where students can study in French, in English or in a bilingual track depending on their goals, with favourable tuition fees for students from France, all within a supportive and stimulating academic environment.
And of course, no trip to Canada would be complete without attending a hockey game and tasting the famous poutine.
Our students came home more mature, motivated and future-oriented, with renewed ambition for their post-bac studies.
A heartfelt thank you to the trip organisers for their dedication and guidance, which helped make this experience truly unforgettable.
