What do students do during the day?

What happens after school?
  After school the fun begins as the students participate in a different activity every day.  The activities are educational, very fun and explore what Canada and Toronto have to offer.

Where do students live?
  Students will live with a Canadian family.  These families have worked with us before and have all been visited by our directors to ensure quality and reliability. Students will stay in a shared room with another student.  If students wish they can request who they want to stay with.
This option includes breakfast, lunch and dinner.

  The second option is available to groups and adult accompanied juniors. This is the fantastic student residence 89 Chestnut.  This residence was formerly a hotel and is very comfortable.  Student will stay in a double room. The residence is conveniently located and has weekly maid service, strong security, a gym, TV rooms, a salon, internet connection points, and a cafeteria. A buffet breakfast is included.  Lunch and dinner meal plans are also available for an extra fee.

Why go to Cornerstone for the summer?
  Who doesn’t want an opportunity to experience other cultures and who doesn’t see the necessity of learning English? At our summer camp students will not even know they are learning as they are immersed into English and Canadian culture while doing so many fun activities.  It is a chance to not only meet people from Canada but also kids their own age from all over the world.  Join us for Cornerstone’s Summer Camp 2007!!!
