Transfer program between Taiwan schools and Red Deer Catholic extended to 2029

“Red Deer Catholic International has really enjoyed welcoming the students from Taiwan to study with us. The students are hard-working, respectful and they fit right in with our people and our culture,” says Patricia MacRae-Pasula, managing director of Red Deer Catholic International.

“The community is grateful for the friendly and caring nature of our students in Taiwan which allows them to connect easily with our students and together are generating greater cultural awareness.”

Current Taiwanese students En-Yu (Annie) Liu & Yu-Hsuan (Mischa) Lai shared about their experience in the program.

“We stepped out of our country and discovered that differences are good” they say.

“We expanded our horizons and learned that people here are kind, respectful and caring. We also grew in independence and have become more confident. We are excited about our opportunities studying at the University of Toronto and University of British Columbia.”

This new MOU was simultaneously signed by representatives from Global Ed British Columbia, the Ontario Educational Communications Authority, and Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools on the evening of April 29, 2024. It will be valid until December 31, 2029.
