On
Sunday, November 19 th , 2006 Winnipeg hosted the Canadian Football
League finals at the Winnipeg Canad Inns Stadium. It was -7 degrees
outside, but that didn't stop the 45,000 fans from packing the
stadium to cheer on the BC Lions and the Montreal Alouettes! Nelly
Furtado also sang during the half-time act. BC won the game 25-14
and everyone had a great time!

Heartland
Wedding
When
students come to Heartland they usually have a wonderful time
and make lots of friends. Some students are even lucky enough
to find their true love. Recently, two of our former students
who met at Heartland got married! The bride is from Taiwan , the
groom is from Japan , and their friends are from all over! The
wedding took place in Japan , and several Heartland students attended.
 
Congratulations
Ellen and Yoichi! |
| Winter
is here!
After
a hot and dry summer with no mosquitoes, and a nice autumn, we
were hoping of a mild winter, but the cold and the snow has arrived!
We can't complain though because the city looks beautiful covered
in white, and we are all looking forward to lots of fun winter
activities like ice-skating, building snowmen, and of course Heartland's
annual Winter Holiday Party! If you are in town, please feel free
to join the festivities on Friday, December 15 th in the afternoon.
Enjoy tree decorating, gift sharing, laughter and good times!
There might even be a visit from Santa Claus!
