Calgary - Educere International College
This summer was full of excitement and adventures for our students. In the month of August, our students had a chance to go to Drumheller. They visited the museum where the world's largest collection of dinosaur remains and explored the site of the biggest dinosaur excavations. Our students had a positive attitude toward their classmates, and this brought them a lot closer. They were also cheerful and well united and therefore their learning and joining of activities was fun and enjoyable. Our students enjoyed the various sporting events mostly. So, EIC (www.educere.ca) will continue to have the sport events in our September's Activities. Calgary International Film Festival is also coming. Many local, national and international films will be shown at various theatres downtown. As for the weather, it was wonderful this summer, and we hope to have a gorgeous Indian summer this September.

Ottawa - Interlangues Language Center
It was a beautiful and busy summer with exciting cultural activities here at Interlangues in Ottawa. We have gone biking along the world famous Rideau Canal (site of the World's Longest Skating Rink in the winter), and we took a field trip south to visit Upper Canada Village along the St. Lawrence River. The students had a fabulous time exploring what life was like back in the 1860's, going on a hay-ride, eating authentic, old-fashioned food and taking a ride in a horse-drawn barge.

Upcoming this fall is our annual trip to enjoy the autumn foliage in Gatineau Park, a national park just minutes away from downtown Ottawa. We will also visit Saunder's Farm to participate in their Halloween activities such as the haunted house, navigating the mazes and hayrides.

With the onset of the new school year, we would like to wish the best to our some of our younger students, Iimun from Korea, and Cedrick, Christian, and Yannick from the Congo who will all be attending high school here in Canada after a summer of preparation at Interlangues.

Vancouver - Canadian as a Second Language Institute
Live on Japan Radio!
September 3rd was an exciting day as CSLI hosted a live broadcast to Japan radio stations promoting Vancouver and studying English at CSLI. Special thanks to Tourism Vancouver, famous radio personality Ryohei Sakuraba and his and his crew from Nippon Hoso for coming all this way for the broadcast.
This is a joint promotion with JTB, Tourism Vancouver and Canadian College of English Language for our new Golden Experience package for senior students that include half-time study and then cultural activities in the
afternoon with Canadians. After a day of classes, salsa lessons, and a flight to Victoria, everyone was invited for sunset dinner at the directors' home at the end of the day.

Montreal - POINT3 Language Center
In the coming weeks at POINT3 we will be continuing our International Cultural Presentations that we began with our Liechtenstein exposition on August 15th. These presentations are an excellent opportunity for our students to learn about the countries of their fellow classmates. First, on September 9th our students will get a chance to practice their paddling techniques when they get a hands-on lesson in some Chinese Dragon Boats. Then to celebrate Mexican Independence Day on September 16th, we're having some home-made Mexican food, along with a look at the evolution of Mexican music, from the Aztec times, to Ranchero, to modern pop and rock.

Our students are also looking forward to a Montréal Expos baseball game. The Expos are still hanging in there, battling it out with a few other teams for the wildcard spot. The crowds have been loud and boisterous, and the baseball has been some of the best this city has seen in years. We are definitely looking forward to going to a game at the Olympic Stadium on September 13th!

This month at POINT3, we're offering one week free to anyone who registers for 4 weeks or more of Intensive French or English. This special is only for the month of September, so hurry and register now!

Toronto - Village English
New Students from Everywhere for Fall!!
Village English is proud to announce that on September 8 we had our biggest new student intake of the year, an encouraging sign that many students of the world may have just postponed, not cancelled, their plans to study in the Toronto area during the recent SARS scare. In many ways, they were wise to wait; autumn in our area is considered by many as the best and most beautiful time to visit, with nice warm days for seeing the sights and cool evenings perfect for going out on the town. The Village English family now includes students from Mexico, France, Japan, Korea, Poland, Liechtenstein, Canada (Quebec), Switzerland, Italy and Colombia. To celebrate the end of a great summer and the beginning of a new season, Village English staff and students organized one of the most successful social events at the school in years, held in a rooftop garden at the home of one of our popular Village English teachers. With a great rooftop view overlooking the Village of Streetsville and our beloved Credit River, each student and staff member brought a type of food typical to their home country and enjoyed an evening of music, friendship, and a lot of fun. In keeping with the Village English mission of getting our students involved with members of our community, a group of Canadian students from a nearby college attended the party and many new friends were made -- all while speaking English of course!

Victoria - Canadian College of Business and Language
The Canadians Are Coming
International students studying English language at Canadian College are looking forward to the return of our wild and crazy film & acting students. When the digital film and acting students graduated in July, many of our international students said that the atmosphere in the computer lab and student area had changed and they said they preferred to mix daily with the Canadian students. Well, the new classes begin September 29th and the mix will begin. Keep your ears open for news of a Friday night beer party in the film studio.

Summer & Winter Sports, All Winter Long
Golf in Victoria year round is definitely possible but many students don't realize that when they choose Victoria as an ESL destination. Students are always surprised when November and December arrive and they are still able to play tennis or golf after school or on weekends. They are even more surprised when they realize that a Victoria winter means you can play tennis, golf, scuba dive and ski or snowboard all in the same weekend, all winter long. Wow, what a place, but don't tell too many people that Victoria is not experience snow like the rest of Canada or we will quickly become overpopulated. For more information on activities or our FREE Friday activities, visit us at www.canadiancollege.ca.

TOEFL & TOEIC Preparation Beefed Up
TOEIC and TOEFL Preparation programs will continue throughout the fall and winter programs due to the high demand by both students and agents. Enrollment will be limited so we recommend that you register early. For more information, contact Paula at paula@cdncollege.bc.ca.

Charlottetown - Study Abroad Canada
Here come the fall colours. Fall is coming and the leaves will soon begin to change colour. If you enjoy seeing orange, yellow and red leaves, the middle of September to the middle of October is the time to come. The leaves are still on into later October, but a few windy days and they all come off.

In September and October some of our activities include: canoeing on a peaceful river, looking at the fall foliage; visiting an apple orchard to taste some apples right from the tree (it doesn't get any fresher than that); the students and staff will prepare a traditional thanksgiving turkey dinner in the demonstration kitchen of a local grocery store; and we will have our annual Halloween Party with pumpkin carving contest and bonfire. Lots of Canadian fun for everyone.

If you are booking to start your program in the next two weeks you can still get free tickets to the Anne of Green Gables Musical. It runs until September 27th.

For a real bargain, start a program of 8-weeks or more and choose the Study Abroad Canada dormitory as your accommodations and receive a discount of $200 per month.
