In addition to LINC Classes, our students can participate in a range of activities that help people meet new people, make friends, connect with other people from their home country and learn about the local  community and Canadian culture.

 Learn about Canadian Culture

Our LINC is about more than English.  We run multiple events and workshops that introduce newcomers to Canadian culture including holidays, trips to local attractions like the Royal Ontario Museum and Indigenous culture.

Make new friends and socialize with other learners

Our social activities help LINC students meet other people and start new friendships outside of LINC classes. 

Language Based Programs

We also coordinate activities for specific language groups to help people connect with others in their native language.
