BCCSC 2012 The 15th Canada Winter Camp was held successfully

Under the leadership of Mr. Andy Truong, there were 51  BCCSC students and teachers arrived in Beijing Airport and started their 18  days’ trip to Canada on January 25th, 2012.
School arranged many wonderful activities for  students. During those days, they traveled to four famous Canadian cities:  Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, and Vancouver, where they visited SMLS Middle School  in Toronto, University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University, Toronto University,  University of Alberta and the Royal Road University in Victoria. They had a  wonderful sightseeing of the winter in Canada, explored the splendid Saint  Joseph church in Montreal, told the difference between Parliament Building and  Rideau Hall in Ottawa and enjoyed the awesome view from CN Tower. The 15th  Winter Camp has a special activity compared with previous. Mr. Kinsella,  the President of the Canadian Parliament House of Lords, Parliament met with our  students. As guests, our students discussed several topics which they are  interested in with members of the House of Lords and also took pictures with  them. As the non-Canadian-Citizenship, our students can be considered as the  first ordinary people who get severed by them. This cherish experience provided  a chance to our students to experience the political life of Canada.?? ?
The most unforgettable  moment to the students was the week they spent together with their Canadian  buddy and host family. They had a better understanding of the Canadian educational  system and the features of Canadian middle school courses.

                                                           ?On Feb. 12th,  2012, students and teachers arrived in Beijing Airport and finished their trip  to Canada successfully. Generally speaking, such short 18 days experience  offers the students opportunities to develop their social acceptability and to  learn more about Canada history, economy, custom and culture. It also helped  them to open their eyes and broaden their mind, to increase their knowledge,  and to build up friendship, strengthened the cultural exchange and enhance  their responsibility, which is very helpful for their later exchanging studying  in Canada and further study abroad.
