For over 20 years, CAIS Boarding Schools have been travelling to Bermuda to meet with families who are interested in a Canadian boarding school education for their children. Just last year, CAIS Boarding Schools welcomed 30 Bermudian students to their campuses.CAIS Boarding Schools continue to be impressed by the quality of students that come from Bermuda each year. Bermudian students have a solid foundation at their local schools, and come to CAIS Boarding Schools ready to integrate into the life of a busy boarding school. In fact, many of them develop into leaders in their residences, the classroom, and in the areas of arts and athletics. Bermudians graduate from CAIS Boarding Schools and become active alumni of their alma maters, promoting their schools proudly and staying involved long after graduation.This is a free event. For more information, contact Fiona Parke, Interim Director of Outreach, CAIS Boarding Schools, at fparke@cais.ca.
