Homestay

Most students who study at our school choose to live with a host family. Homestay placements are done by one of our full-time staff so there is always someone at school
to answer questions about homestays. Our homestay coordinator visits and approves all of our homestay families before they can receive students. When you complete your registration form, you give us information such as your interests and hobbies. This information helps us match you with your new host family. Our goal is to find a family that shares your interests, where possible, so everyone will have a rewarding experience. Our homestay families are well-known for providing students with a friendly and caring environment.

The profiles of our homestay families are very diverse. Some homestay families consist
of a mom, dad and children while others may be a single person with or without children, or an elderly couple whose children no longer live at home.

Canadian families tend to have very active life styles. Daily exercise
routines, busy work schedules and driving children to/from activities
are part of normal family life here. Remember that Canadian family
customs may be different from those in your own country. Participate 
where you can with your new homestay family.

All our homestay families drive students to school and pick them up
after class.  During the warmer months, you may be able to borrow a bicycle from your host family so you can bike to school. Our families
are normally no more than a 10 or 15 minute drive from the school.

Dear Homestay Family,

I am very happy that I could stay at your house!  You are really kind and
 Abby and Cinnamon are very cute!!  Also, I like my room.  It is comfortable and pretty!  The private shower room is very nice!  In addition, I am happy that I could play the piano.  Also, I really enjoyed watching videos and movies.  What's more, the foods were delicious!  Thank you for everything!  I will never forget about this summer and you!  I hope I will come back to P.E.I. in the future with my mother and meet you again!  I really like P.E.I. and P.E.I.'s people.  I am very very happy to meet such a great family.
