We met our Exchange Stundent, Thomas Almeida at the airport yesterday and brought him to Stratford. I think it will take a while for him to get used to the cold, but this is Canada.
He saw snow for the first time and made a snowball. He is eager for new experiences, so we'll take him to Blue Mountains on the weekend and get him on a snowboard ! Thomas will be at our Tuesday meeting. Please take the time to introduce yourself and make Thomas feel very welcome. It will to great to have Thomas invited to your homes for a visit and/or meal. Also, think to include him on any outings. Thomas' English skills are very good, so communication is not a problem.
