Summer Camps 2012 Slide 2 Experience Canadian culture in a beautiful country setting where you can watch the sun rise and set from a 2500 square foot deck overlooking a grove of trees, a golf course and a lakeyou might even see some deer! Slide 3 Feel the open spaces inside the home-like school where you can read or chat with friends, or write to friends and family in our internet connected sitting area..

Our washrooms are bright and cheery with black Spanish marble floors, recirculating hot water showers, low flow rainwater showerheads and composting toilets.. Slide 6 Our sleeping areas accommodate only 4 people per room with beautifully bright windows, lovely hardwood floors, bunk-beds, cupboards and closets. Slide 7 Cozy up by the fire under the 16 foot cathedral ceilings on a chilly night in the winter.. Slide 8 or outside by the fire roasting marshmallows singing campfire songs and telling stories. Slide 9 We have internet throughout the entire facility so learning can take place anywhere, anytime. We love to work with small groups as they build their skills by doing rather than reading and memorizing. Slide 10 Great activities like painting a building together are fun and create wonderful opportunities to practice language and make friends.. Slide 11 not to mention practicing your painting skills. (Its okay if you get a little on you ) Slide 12 Together, we can make a cake Slide 13 or pizza. Here, working with their Canadian partner, each student made their own pizza from scratch.. Slide 14 then ate every last bite! It was great fun. Slide 15 Depending on when you come, we can plan many activities that involve Canadian children. Here we visited a public school to meet new friends and everyone had the opportunity to share their own culture. Slide 16 We have excursions to wonderful places like Wanuskewin, where you can learn how to build a teepee Slide 17 or simply take time to relax and hang out with friends, either inside Slide 18 or on the deck where you can enjoy the open spaces of the prairies . Slide 19 and be amazed at the natural displays that Canada has to offer... Slide 20 And of course there is golfing and refreshments at the Solar Garden restaurant. The food is fresh and wholesome and the golf course is just up the hill from a regional park and swimming pool Slide 21 The Solar Garden Restaurant is a real working restaurant owned by Praxis International Institute. Its a short walk from Praxis and always has fresh treats for its patrons. Slide 22 And we have special classes in the conference rooms at the Solar Garden when we need lots of work space.. Slide 23 and learn about environmental sustainability. This beautiful stone wall soaks up the heat during the day and keeps the place warm during the night. Slide 24 Say Goodbye to a wonderful group of students we hosted from Japan in Spring of 2011! They really enjoyed the outdoors and the friendly people in our community..
