"CSLI Celebrates Boat Cruise Graduation & Wedding..."
CSLI students were treated to a prime view of Vancouver from the waters of English Bay aboard the ship "Abitibi". Over 250 students, including 60 graduates, enjoyed the ceremony on the last day of August and were also witness to a real Canadian wedding! CSLI's former student Yoko, returned to Canada to wed her new husband Tony, hosted by the Directors! Congratulations once again to them!

Eliana Cuellar of Mexico was CSLI's top student for August, taking home the Student of the Month award entitling her to a return airline ticket to Vancouver in 2002 for our 10th anniversary reunion, including a 1 month scholarship. Great job, Eliana! Thanks to Canada Incredible for sending her to us.

"CSLI Goes to the Races!"
As a bonus gift after the graduation celebrations last Friday, CSLI treated all its students to a day at the Molson Indy Cart motor races! The track was just a few minutes' walk away from the school, through the streets around False Creek. Our students (presently from more than 20 countries) had the opportunity to cheer for drivers from their home countries, including racing teams from Brazil, Mexico, Japan and Canada! Congratulations to this year's winner, Brazil's Roberto Moreno! Many of our students volunteered at this event and had a chance to meet the racers.

"Top CSLI Alumni Representative ..."
... Ms. Ji Young Park recently visited CSLI from Korea. She has become our most successful alumni representative. One of the most appealing features for her students is the restricted number of Korean students at CSLI. Congratulations to Ji Young for her dedication in promoting Vancouver and Canada to Korean students and for being such a great ambassador for our school!

"Focus on Canada Curriculum"
CSLI students learned a great deal about Canada during last week's special one week curriculum which focused on the diverse culture, history, geography, industry and people found in each of our provinces. Each classroom at CSLI is named after a Canadian province or territory, so classes researched and represented their own area of Canada. All studies at CSLI are rich in Canadian content; however, this week gave students the opportunity to study the provinces in depth, as well as to have many interesting guest speakers from the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool, Canada Post, Key-West Tours, and a member of our local music industry. Other curriculum topics in August included Health & Medicine, Technology & Inventions, Entertainment, and Education. CSLI students met Canadians through outings to the Orpheum Theatre, UBC Hospital, Westender Newspaper, Stanley Theatre, Yaletown Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, CDIS College, Museum of Anthropology and the Canadian National Institute for the Blind.

"Annual Auction for Cancer Research"
CSLI held its annual Terry Fox auction in honor of Canada's hero and in support of cancer research. Thank you to all students and their host families for their generous and creative donations. In total, over $1100 was raised in the span of just 1 hour! A special thank you also to Ms. Valerie Hutton-Alcom, of the Terry Fox Foundation, for sharing her stories and giving insight to our students on the importance of Terry's legacy. The Terry Fox fund raising annual run will be held on Sunday, September 16th, in which CSLI students and teachers will participate once again. Terry Fox runs are now held in over 60 countries in 250 locations worldwide, including Japan, Mexico, Germany, Taiwan, Korea, Argentina, Venezuela and nearly every country CSLI students are from. We encourage past CSLI students and our representatives overseas to participate in your local run. The benefits to cancer research are immense and all money raised stays in your own country toward finding a cure! For more information on locations worldwide, go to:
