Niagara Toronto loves sports and is fortunate enough to have the only Major League Baseball team in Canada – The Blue Jays. Under the gaze of the CN Tower KGIC watches the Jay’s as they are affectionately known, play baseball at the Rogers Centre. Taking in a game is always amzing and only gets better for us when the roof is open and and a cool breeze blows

through the stadium.

Travelling to Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City over a three day weekend KGIC students had a great oppotunity to discover and explore French Canada. Students walked 400 year old streets in old Quebec and enjoyed eating Poutine in Montreal, a cutural centre of Canada. Ottawa, the capital of Canada, had many interesting attractions to explore from the Parliament buildings to the National Art Gallery, where students had a chance to experience the heart of Canada and maybe even get a picture with a Mountie.
