Yesterday, EC Montreal held its last complimentary activity of the year; our annual gingerbread house making event! We set up two houses per table; one was made of gingerbread and the other of lego gummies! All the students grouped together to build their house. This was an excellent team building activity and one that really showcased our students’ creativity!
It was so beautiful to see all the students working together with our Christmas decorations in the background and the sweet smell of gingerbread and candy in the air. Students even broke out in song; singing holiday songs in English and in their native languages as well! They did such a great job at creating the most beautiful houses!
At EC Montreal we love to create the wonderful moments for our students to bond with one another and to create unforgettable memories. Our students look forward to our Wednesday activities so they can simply hang out in the student lounge; practicing their language skills, sharing jokes, sharing laughs and having a fun time!
These complimentary activities are an important part of our students’ journey. At EC Montreal we strongly believe that what happens outside the classroom is just as important as what happens inside the classroom. All these activities and events add to the student’s experience. These moments are enriching and contribute to the students’ learning.
At EC Montreal we always make the December calendar of events extra special. Being away from friends and loved ones during the holiday season can be difficult for some students. We want to make sure that students have a chance to celebrate Christmas with their EC Montreal family while they are here. We also count on our homestay hosts to include our students in their family celebrations. We love hearing these wonderful stories from our homestay hosts about sharing recipes and traditions with their students. December is wonderful at Montreal ESL School !!
Happy Holidays from the EC Montreal family! Best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!
