Homestay Thumbnail.pngInterested in becoming a homestay family to an international student this September? 

Plan to attend a virtual information session on Tuesday, February 20 at 7 p.m. 

During this session you’ll find out how hosting students from around the world can be an enriching experience for all.  

Benefits of being a Homestay Family: 
  • Welcome the world into your home 
  • Allow international secondary school students the opportunity to experience life as a Canadian student 
  • Connect and discover new cultures, friendships and promote diversity and inclusion in our school communities 
How it Works: 
  • We collect information from both students and homestay families regarding their hobbies and goals for participation in the program.  
  • We match based on the best fit between students and homestay families.  
  • Students and Families then receive a profile of their matches and begin to connect. 
  • To offset costs of hosting, a generous fee is provided. 
  • Sharing of cultures and traditions
