Over the October break, several of our boarders opted for the exciting school trip to Tanzania where they embarked on the most incredible adventure! Valentina was one of these students and experienced some truly wonderful moments, some of which are captured below ❤️🌏
This trip had the perfect mix of volunteer work, camping, site seeing and animal spotting 🗺️🏕️
During the first week, the students worked hard by assisting with an important building project that, once finished, will greatly benefit the local community. As you can see from the photos, Valentina’s contribution to this project was certainly impactful 🙌
She was able to learn new skills, and more importantly, gain an appreciation for work under challenging conditions 👏
Well done, Valentina – you did us proud 💕
Working alongside the community, the students were able to learn about the daily lives, cultures, traditions and challenges experienced by the locals. They connected with the young children through dancing, singing and playing games – an unforgettable experience for all the parties involved! ❤️
Of course, no trip to Africa would be complete without a Safari! The students were lucky enough to witness some of the world’s most beautiful animals, including Zebras, giraffes, elephants, buffalo and even lions! 🦒🦓🦁🐂
And finally, during the last week, the group travelled to Zanzibar to enjoy some well-earned rest & relaxation on the stunning beaches! 🛥️⚓🏝️
As you can see, this trip was not just a holiday, it was an opportunity to give back, learn, and grow. The students returned back to Switzerland with a deeper appreciation for different cultures, and of course unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime 💕🌍
