Homestay

Student Activities & Excursions

Some students in short-term programs have customized program where hotel stays are used. Each short-term program is customized for the individual dates and groups that attend.

​For long-term stay and some short-term programs students will typically be placed with a family in a homestay arrangement to allow them to fully experience Canadian languages and culture. Our host families are an important part of the Wolf Creek International Learning Program. Students are also supported by a Homestay Services staff member who is available to both families and individual students. Our host families welcome international students as a wonderful opportunity to have new learning experiences together with other cultures.

Families in Canada and across the world come in all different shapes and sizes and this is true of your host family. Family compositions range from the “traditional family” structure to single parents and everything in-between. This experience is about people as much as it is about culture and living with a different family will be part of what makes your program unique.

Program Experiences

SHORT TERM STAY
International students are invited to join us for a two to four week short-term experience. Sister school partnerships provide an incredible opportunity for international students to attend classes and integrate with Canadian students and culture. Programs are custom designed and vary during different seasons but typically include a mix of ESL instruction, regular classes and extra-curricular activities and field trips in and around Alberta.

STUDENT EXCHANGES
Canadian students in Wolf Creek participate with students from other countries around the world through student exchange opportunities. Programs range in size as does each of our schools in Wolf Creek. Exchange opportunities can be arranged from district staff.
​
The Wolf Creek International Learning Program sponsors a wide range of learning activities and events for participating students. Local Canadian students come together with international students to attend these events together, making the most of every experience.  Wolf Creek Student Ambassadors support and provide friendship to international students during their stay with us. Student Ambassadors attend classes and local excursions with international students. Experiences within the local area as well as across Alberta are planned during their stay.
