Activities + Day Trips

The primary goal of our Cultural Connections Activities & Day Trips is to enhance the student experience at VIU. We seek to do this by providing opportunities for students to engage with the local community and experience cultural events, while exploring nature and connecting with peers.

Being connected, active, and engaged in the local environment is healthy. It can help with the cultural adjustment process for students who are new to Canada or new to the community.

Campfire Cookout

Campfire Cookout

In Canada there is no better way to kick off the summer months than to sit by a campfire with a good group of friends. Join Cultural Connections as we create fond memories of toasting marshmallows, cooking hotdogs, strumming guitars and of course, telling stories around the fire. Halal and veggie dog options will be available
