A Sneak Peak at EC Montreal's February Calendar of Events!

Sharing is caring!

Before we know it, we will be celebrating Valentine’s Day!  The month of February is right around the corner and our EC Montreal team is excited to roll out our February calendar of events!  The theme in February is all about the love!  We will celebrate Valentine’s Day, try to create love connections and show a true love for human kind as we celebrate Pink Shirt Day which recognizes an anti-bully movement.

The first complimentary activity of the month begins with a traffic light party.  This is one of EC Montreal’s most popular and well-received activity.  If you have never been to a traffic light party, here’s what’s it all about!  EC Montreal will be preparing cocktails with different colored drinks.  As with a traffic light; there will be three colors; red, green and yellow.  Depending on which cocktail color you choose, it will tell us a little bit about your relationship status.  If you choose the green drink, it means you are available and looking for love.  If you choose the red drink, it means, stop, I am taken and off limits.  If you choose the yellow one, it means “it’s complicated”.  Maybe you just started dating and are unsure where it is headed or maybe you are in a relationship that is just about to end or perhaps you are on a relationship break from your partner.  Those students who choose the yellow drink are the best conversation starters!  Everyone wants to know why it is so complicated!

The activity is a great ice breaker and a great way to make a love connection.  Our hope is that the green drinkers will find each other and maybe find love!  It is a great activity to have right before Valentine’s Day which takes place the following week on the best day of the week; Friday!  Hope many Valentine’s dates will EC Montreal help to create!?

The following week, we will celebrate Valentine’s Day with our annual chocolate festival!  The student lounge will be set up with different kinds of chocolate treats for students to enjoy.  If you didn’t make a love connection, you can feel better by indulging in some delicious, sweet desserts!  If you did make a love connection, you can share a treat with your new love!  How romantic would that be?  The center of attraction at the event will be our chocolate fountain!  We will have a fountain oozing the most sweet and delicious chocolate with skewers of fruits, marshmallows and pound cake to dip!  My mouth is watering just at the thought of it!

On February 19, in keeping with the love theme, we will show a romantic comedy in the student lounge.  How about some pink popcorn to go with a romantic movie?

During our last week in February, EC Montreal will host its annual Pink Shirt Day.  On this day, we encourage everyone to come to school wearing pink to show their support and dedication to our anti-bullying initiative.  Pink Shirt Day is a national day that helps to raise awareness to the dangers of bullying and how, as a school, we can be proactive in preventing bullying.  We ask our students to write down what they can do to help create a bully free zone.  We also serve pink refreshments and encourage open discussions on the subject.

What an amazing February we look forward to at EC Montreal!  Join our Montreal French and English classes this winter!
