Do you live in Delta and have room in your heart and in your home?
Being a host family is a wonderful opportunity to share you culture and learn about other cultures at the same time. In hosting a student, you are also playing a vital role in the most important experience they’ve had in their life to date!
We greatly value and respect the contributions made by our families and our pleased to offer host families an exceptional level of support both in onboarding new families, as well as supporting host families as they host their students.
Students come from a variety of countries in Asia, Europe, Central and South America and Africa. Delta’s International Students represent 35 different countries.
