Canadian College of Business and Language - Victoria, BC
Basketball allstars
Canadian College High School Preparation students formed a team this month to participate in a special tournament of teams from Victoria High Schools. The Canadian College Team was very successful and their skill placed them on the podium in third position amongst over twenty-seven teams. A huge achievement since they had no time to practice due to the huge amount of homework and studies they have every day. These students will finish their program August 20th and then successfully enter prestigious Canadian High Schools were they can play more basketball.

POINT3 Language Centre - Montreal, Quebec
Summer in Montreal is off to a great start!
The International Jazz Festival was incredible and many of our students went out to see the free shows almost every night! We danced amid the crushing crowds to Motown hits of the 60's and 70's, performed by the Funk Brothers, and were even treated to a special appearance by the Four Tops! The festival came to a close with a spectacular event that could only be produced by our very own Cirque du Soleil; you had to see it to believe it! Some of our students were on-site to get a good view at 3 o'clock in the afternoon - and the show only started at 9 pm!

A POINT3 Wedding!
When Izumi came to Montreal to study English last September, and Dawei came here to learn French last November, marriage was not on their list of things to do in Montreal! But just last month they tied the knot right in Old Montreal, with friends from POINT3 in attendance! The happy couple has moved to Japan, where they will celebrate once again. We knew Montreal was a romantic city, but here is the proof! Who knows what you'll find if you come to study at POINT3, in Montreal!

Interlangues Language School - Ottawa, Ontario
Summer is here, and the school is abuzz with activity and excitement! Our Children and Teen programs opened this month and we have welcomed new students, children, teen and adults, from all over the world, including Canada. We have students from France, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Mexico, Brazil, Turkey, Ivory Coast, Colombia, Korea, and even Quebec. These programs offer more activities than Intensive English, so we have had many activities so far this month: the Museum of Nature, Changing the Guard on Parliament Hill, which you can see in the picture, a tour of Rideau Hall's beautiful grounds, and of course…Canada Day! Our students had the chance to witness Canada Day in the Nation's Capital. About 300 000 people flocked downtown to see concerts, watch other people, and the fireworks! This year was Canada's 137th birthday. Tune in next month to see how our excursions went: a trip to Toronto for the weekend and to Upper Canada Village for the day on Friday.

We will also be offering another administration of the TOEIC® test this month, as this has proven quite popular with our students. We wish everyone writing this test the best of luck! interlangues.english@on.aibn.com

Canadian as a Second Language Institute - Vancouver, British Columbia
Lunch is Served!
As one of our free Friday Activities, students hiked in West Vancouver to the home of Directors Lori-Ann and Lawrence Keenan. Over 100 students were rewarded for the exercise with drinks and a huge buffet of sumptuous food. Roasting marshmallows, water fights, and dancing to "YMCA" were some of the memorable activities at this event. Our quasi-annual 'Harry Potter premiere' took place as students joined CSLI Resident Wizard Mark in a special class before seeing the new movie on opening day. Another event, of course, was our big grad party. This month we had a BBQ lunch and dance party on the beach, and then headed to a nightclub to dance the night away. Congrats to Joanna Nocon from Germany, who was our Student of the Month. July activities include Bowen Island trip, Whistler, Tennis Lessons, Getting a Makeover, Beer Tasting, Spelling Bee Contest - students did a great job in the contest, which focused on spelling and articulation skills. Hosted by the extraordinary MC Mike, the competition was tough as so many students had prepared so well! Congratulations to our winner, Yuko Saijo from Japan, who is in the high Intermediate level and nevertheless beat out the advanced students!
