The Learning Centre encourages students to participate in numerous contests throughout the year. We use these contests to challenge students, involve them in the college, and demonstrate to them that learning can be fun and exciting. Many of our contests involve teamwork so students get to know one another.
Students then feel more comfortable in their learning environment.
Our annual Bridge Building Contest is held every fall. Weights were then attached and prizes were awarded for efficiency and aesthetics. Inc. The Gazette Challenge was held as well in the fall of 1998. In this contest, cosponsored with Vanier's English Department and The Gazette, teams of students read the newspaper during a reading period of a month. The semi-finals were then held with questions given by The Gazette.
