Trips and Activities

 

 

We recognize that not all learning takes place inside the classroom, so EICI offers a variety of out of class activities. These activities provide students with the opportunity to experience Canadian culture and sports as well as interact with the Canadian people. Some of the activities include, nature walks, a trip of the Ecology Center, ice fishing, visit to the Maple Syrup Festival in Powassan, a visit to Sudbury´s Science North and ski / snowboarding activities at Laurentian Ski Hill and Nordic Ski Club.
