20-DAY STRUGGLING TEENS FIRST STEPS
2008 Rates & Dates
CanAdventure
Education offers rolling admission, meaning that we can
accept struggling teens at most any time through our March
- November season. We can respond quickly to families
in crisis and will take all reasonable steps to expedite
the enrolment process when necessary. That said, we encourage
families to consider the value of planning ahead and starting
new applicants at the same time as other struggling teens.
While we can integrate newcomers into our programs with
relative ease, the process will undoubtedly be easier
for struggling teens if they are not starting a couple
of days or weeks behind their peers.
Prices
for 20-day Struggling Teens First Steps programs are as
follows:
CAN$6,200
+ GST
(approx.
$5,500 USD).
Extended
stays are available at CAN$310 + GST (approx.$280 USD)
per day.
Tuition fees are not pro-rated for late arrivals.
Scholarships of up to 50% are available to families based
on a financial means assessment.

Spring
Equinox: 2008
Held
from early spring to summer, these programs celebrate
the arrival of warmer weather and emergence from
darkness of winter. Each year on the spring (or
vernal) equinox, daytime hours have increased to
be the same length as night and spring blooms are
in full swing on Vancouver Island. Early spring
on the Island is characterized by rapid growth,
as warmth returns to the land, rivers run clear
again, and dark clouds give way to sunshine and
new beginnings. We take full advantage of this heart-warming
weather to get outside and begin the season of adventure,
learning and personal growth.

Summer
Solstice: 2008
Our
Summer Solstice programs celebrates all that is
great about summer. Referring to the longest day
of the year, the summer solstice is a time to take
stock of opportunities available to us all and celebrate
the most active and social time of year. Summer
is also the most enjoyable time of year to soak
in the wonders of nature, and CanAdventure Education
makes the most of it. Our Summer Solstice programs
focus on activities that are perfect for the hottest
time of summer; mountain hikes, river studies, and
sea kayaking. |
