Back at , students will participate in teambuilding and leadership activities and will have the opportunity to experience culture at its best in a day trip to local cheese and chocolate manufacturers.

In the lead up to the expedition, we have developed a training programme that will help your child fully prepare for their adventure. They will participate in a variety of webinars, exercises and tasks in their school groups and will also connect with students around the world in our dedicated planning area on Global Campus Online.

This experience has been designed to help your child collaborate with their fellow students, connect with the environment, and develop valuable life skills such as leadership, self-reliance, risk-taking, flexible thinking, organisation and perseverance. We believe this will be a memorable and motivating experience for every child, giving them a sense of self-accomplishment.
