SCHOOL ACTIVITIES: Excursions throughout Ontario

 

Language School of Canada offers a variety of after school activities both in school and outside.  All of our in-school activities are free!  The excursions in the city are either free or cheap.  We also organize trips outside of the city for camping and touring other Canadian cities and tourist attractions. 

FREE BONUS CLASSES

Each week, Language School of Canada offers free and useful bonus classes for students!  They are at 3:30pm and are often specialized classes on a particular subject, like listening, pronunciation, or grammar. Or they could be a fun way to pracise conversation.  They might also be designed to help you with a specific skill, like resume writing.  Check out the calendar and notice board for the next bonus class - and join us!

 

BOOK CLUB

Book clubs a very common among Canadians, so why not join us for our free after school book club!  This exciting school club is very popular with students.   

The teacher guides students through the book by focusing on vocabulary and comprehension questions. Although it is fun, you'll learn a lot - especially everyday, informal vocabulary.  Read a great book and talk about it with other students.  You'll have something to do after school, and something to talk about, too.

 

GUEST SPEAKERS

This is a great way to practise your English and meet a real Canadian.  Most guest speakers are native speakers and they are interested in meeting foreign students to talk with.  The classes are free and students find them interesting, informative and a great way to interact with Canadians that aren't your teachers.  Topics include things like changing careers, running your own business, identity theft, favourite places in Toronto, making a TV show, and other types of work the guest speakers do.  Come take advantage or this wonderful opportunity.

From May through October, Language School of Canada offers weekend summer camping and canoeing trips in Algonquin Provincial Park. Each trip is guided and all equipment and food is included at a very reasonable price.  Transportation is by van; tents and inflatable mattresses mean you will sleep well; hearty food is provided for each meal.  Canoe lessons and an outdoor sauna make this a weekend not to be missed!

 

SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING
During the winter months, when there is snow, Language School of Canada organizes skiing and snowboarding trips for students to join.  Less than two hours north of Toronto, these full day trips give students a great chance to have a fun day on the slopes.  A one hour lesson, equipment and transportation are all provided.  Why not join other students and lean to ski!
RESTAURANT EXCURSIONS

Each month, we have a school trip to a different restaurant in an interesting neighbourhood. Students can try a wide variety of food from different countries and experience the many authentic cultures that make up Toronto.  Try Greek food in Greektown, Italian food in Little Italy, Chinese buns in Chinatown, African food and others.  More chance to talk with your teacher and interesting food at good prices!

 

LOCAL NEIGHBOURHOODS

We want to show our students local areas and hang-outs that Torontians know and love.  For some of our after school activities, we take students to a different area or place that is not on the typical tourist map.  These local tours include cool coffee shops, hidden squares and places you probably wouldn't discover on your own.  Come explore with us!

LOCAL EVENTS

Toronto has been called a city of festivals.  Most weekends, especially in the summer, there is some sort of culural or musical festival. When possible, Language School of Canada takes students on after school activities to take in these events and festivals.  A summer trip to play beach volleyball and see the Jazz festival is a popular school excursion.  The Royal Winter Fair, the Luminato Festival and Gay Pride Parade are other popular trips.  You're sure to see something different!
