Warm Hearts for Disadvantaged Children
On Valentines Day, gifts generously donated by our warm-hearted students, homestay hosts, and staff raised $915 CDN in a charity auction for our four school sponsored disadvantaged children. The auction had a romantic theme, and gifts ranged from plates of home baked cookies, candles, and bottles of wine, to private English tutoring for individual students. Special thanks to all our students and homestays for their inspiring generosity. CSLI cares:

Free Activities & CSLI Olympics!Free Activities & CSLI Olympics.
Spring has arrived and has brought with it blooming flowers, nicer weather, longer days and warmer nights, sunshine, sunglasses and lighter spirits! CSLI students enjoyed some spring FREE Friday spring skiing and snowboarding on Grouse Mountain, one of Vancouver's most exciting local mountains. We're breaking out the tennis racquets, soccer balls, t-shirts and shorts for the warm weather ahead! While the best of the best athletes competed for gold in Salt Lake City, USA, students at CSLI competed to see who was the best of the best in some less traditional events. Germany, Mexico, and Austria topped the CSLI medal count! Congratulations to all our "athletes", as well as all the nations athletes in Salt Lake for bringing honour and pride to their respective nations!

Mardi Gras Graduation!
Students hid their true identities behind black clothes and hand-crafted masks at this month's graduation party. Student of the Month.The carnival styled celebration took place at one of Vancouver's dinner and dance clubs, and was a smashing success! Class prizes were awarded to the hardest working students and the best costume. The student with perhaps the most to celebrate was Satoe Tokushima from Japan, who was chosen as February's Student of the Month. Satoe will receive a free flight back to our 10 year reunion and a one month scholarship with all the other students of the month. Well done Satoe, and congratulations for all your hard work!

Cupid Wishes & Wedding Bells!
Two special students had their wishes granted by Cupid this Valentines Day. Many students wrote touching letters about their romantic wishes, and in the end Cupid decided to fulfill the dreams of two of our very committed students. Their desire was to stay together for one more month, and Cupid's gift was one more month of studies here at CSLI! Congratulations to Raphaella and Marco of Italy! Congratulations also to Akemi Sato and Nicola Adami for tying the knot. These two lovebirds met and fell in love at CSLI, and we wish them a happy and prosperous future together. Just for the record, this is our 25th CSLI wedding! See love at CSLI:
