Running for a Cause:
Several CSLI students, teachers and staff participated in the 20th annual Terry Fox Run to raise money for cancer research.  This event takes place each year in a growing number of countries world-wide (now in over 52), in honor and memory of our national hero.  This year over CND$5.5 million was raised.  It's wonderful to see our students' concern and care for such a great cause - thank you!

Graduation Barbeque a Huge Hit:
CSLI students enjoyed a beautiful Vancouver autumn day at Second Beach in Stanley Park and bade farewell to a big group of graduating students.  After the hundreds of pictures taken, games and a soccer match were played.  Thanks to Keith & "his crew" for their great culinary skills in preparing burgers for this successful event!
