Letter to Families – Seeking homestay families for international students

July 12, 2022 By Brett

Tuesday, July 12, 2022

Dear Parents and Guardians,

YES Canada, in partnership with the Near North District School Board (NNDSB), is seeking families to host international high school students from France, Italy, Sweden, Netherlands, Spain and Japan who will be arriving in September 2022, studying for three, five or 10 months. The students are taking part in an international education program studying in local schools and immersing themselves in Canadian culture and the English language.

Host families are responsible for providing three meals a day in a safe and nurturing environment and are compensated with a monthly stipend. International students are excited to learn more about the exchange country’s culture and language and to experience Canadian living.

Students are required to comply with all Government of Canada and public health requirements related to COVID-19 and all students arriving to take part in the programs in September 2022 will be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 prior to arrival.

Hosting is a fantastic way to experience another country and culture in your own home and it is also a great way to establish life-long friendships and connections.

If you are interested in hosting an international high school student or would like to learn more about YES Canada’s homestay program, please contact

homestay@youthedservices.ca or call 416-623-6220 ext. 410.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Near North District School Board
