This event brought together many ESL schools and allowed their students a chance to meet and share their experiences in a fun filled day. All the students who attended were given a ticket for a free slice of pizza and drink. Students mingled with fellow students and stopped at different activity tables being run by the participating schools. A live band played on a stage and many students took the floor to show off their dance moves.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1902\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1902\" style=\"width: 350px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/MaresaWSDWeb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1902\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/MaresaWSDWeb.jpg\" alt=\"Manning the LSI Vancouver desk\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/MaresaWSDWeb.jpg 350w, https:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/MaresaWSDWeb-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/MaresaWSDWeb-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1902\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Manning the LSI Vancouver desk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Schools tried to attract and entertain students to their tables, in many creative ways. Free pictures in provided costumes and ping pong matches. A Canadian classic, shooting plastic hockey pucks at a goalie in net as well as a giant Jenga set of blocks that once built, challenged students to see how many pieces they could remove before it collapsed.<\/p>\n<p>This year at the LSI table students took turns launching ping pong balls into plastic cups. Each student was given 3 chances to shoot a ball into a group of plastic cups. All the students that stopped by to try their luck were given a little prize for taking part and all the successful students won a LSI backpack if one of their 3 shots landed in a cup.<\/p>\n<p>The event started at noon and lasted until 5 pm. As you can see from the pictures everyone enjoyed the day and left with some more fond memories of Vancouver.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1899\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1899\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IceHockeyWSDBlog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1899\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IceHockeyWSDBlog.jpg\" alt=\"IceHockeyWSDBlog\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IceHockeyWSDBlog.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blog.lsi.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IceHockeyWSDBlog-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1899\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Typcial Canadian Entertainment &#8211; ice hockey!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Find out more about living and studying in Vancouver from our team at <a href=\"mailto:van@lsi.edu\" target=\"_blank\">LSI Vancouver<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LSI Vancouver took part in the 2015 World Student Day held Friday June 12, 2015 at Robson Centre.
