Our Field Trip To Centre Island

   In order to celebrate the Canada Day, the LINC classmates of MicroSkills organized a field trip to Toronto Centre Island. Before the journey, I did some homework, including research the information of the island and the schedule of the public transport.
 
   On the morning of 30 June, I took the TTC 17 to the Warden Subway Station, then exchanged Line 1  and  line 2 at Younge and Bloor stop to Union station. Due to the good weather and short distance, I choose on foot to Ferry Terminal.

   At the Ferry Terminal, I met a lot of classmates. They were waiting others so they can buy a group tickets at a 10% discount. I did not find any friends so I buy a ticket that costed me 7.5 dollar. After the persons is on board, the boat driven toward the island. The air is a little cold and fresh, some kids are so excited that they yelling and running on the board. The sheep is arrived at 20 minutes after beginning. The teacher, Joseph, has been waiting for us at the island. When the most classmates arrived, we took a group photo and visit the island separately. We ate some delicious food,  play soccer and have a trial along the island. Some beaches is attractive but only have a little people on the beach because it is on the noon and the sun is very strong. Some people take bicycles and sit on the tourism ship instead of walking to visit the beautiful views of the island.

  After spending 3 hours, we took the return trip to Toronto. I have never seen the CN tower and other buildings from other angle. The impression is totally different.

   This field trip is very interesting because we have learned how to organize a trip, enjoyed the beautiful view of Toronto, and shared the delicious food and valuable time.

The good side of the residential school story

Residential schools are Canada's shame. For roughly 100 years, their aim was to break the back of family, community, history and spirituality. The good always along the bad, just as the story of journalist's mother's stories has told. Lead by such example and use the opportunity to create harmony, to create harmony, to create a more balanced future for all of Canadians.

Sunnybrook

Sunnybrook Park is a large public park in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located north of Leaside and south of the Bridle Pathareas of the city. The park is home to many bike trails, dog parks, and Sunnybrook Stables.

Joseph,the teacher of linc,  led us to pay this park a visit on last Friday. Joseph picked up some students at the DonMills station because some student does not have a car and do not know the exact location. 

The first trail is accompanied by many animals, including a beaver, the national symbol of Canada and which you can find at the 5 cent coin. During the journey, Joseph showed us how to use the phases of chicken off.

After a delicious picnic, we visited the horse stables and played on the biggest ground. The sun is shinning but it can prevent us from the funny sports of soccer and other games. It is a funny park and we enjoyed it.

tiff

Tiff, Toronto international film festival,  is a charitable cultural organization with a mission to transform the way people see the world, through film. The class of Linc has a visit to this organization last Thursday. The organization is founded in 1976 and has 40 years history. The main income is from the donation, including the land donated by the founder family.

The most special characteristic of the building is the box. When you entered into the hall, you will find a lot of boxes with different color.  The most important box is the control box which is red.

According to the volunteer speaker,"you can find a lot of movie star on the wall of washroom." We found many Asian stars which we are very familiar.

We have learned a lot of knowledge of the film festival and got the chance to be a volunteer. It is very interesting.
