Facilitating home-stay arrangements for Nigerian students studying in Canada.
The Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) does not provide boarding-style accommodations. Instead, they offer a homestay arrangement where students live with Canadian families while they are within the age of minority. The host families act as custodians, ensuring the well-being of the students by providing necessary care and support.
At Sion Continental Services, we partner with "YES" Homestay, one of the homestay service providers approved by the TCDSB, to offer accommodation services to international students. While under our care, we actively engage students in various aspects of life activities, such as participating in grocery shopping, religious activities, and other events happening in Toronto. This ensures a seamless and stress-free integration into Canadian society.
Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB)
The TCDSB welcomes students from around the world, offering admissions from kindergarten through elementary and secondary schools up to Grade 12. Currently, there are over 100,000 students enrolled in the TCDSB's elementary and secondary schools, spread across more than 200 schools located in different areas of Toronto.
