Our students are back to school form an amazing trip from Africa. They spent their last week with helping in Tanzania. Exploring Africa's life was a life-changing adventure for everyone who participated in the expedition.
Renovating a classroom, building a library and making new friends our students and teachers have had a fantastic experience.
The service work was not only an incredible adventure but a great opportunity to learn more about how people can contribute eachothers life.
Service work is an importnat part of our education students can grow personally, improve their self-confidence and social understanding and children are able to develope their skills of working together sharing tasks and roles.
"On our first day, we arrived at 3:00am to the camp looking forward to the big adventure that lies ahead in the unknown. We had 4 hours sleep or less but were truely excited to start our service work and discovering Afrtica.
Day 2 was our first full day in Tanzania when we had to orientate ourselves around campus and had free time to get to know the students from the other schools.
On the first service day We visited the Ngrisi village and got to see what the people of Africa live like. We ran downhill and uphill while hiking, it was excruciatingly tiring. As part of our project we sanded, scraped and painted half of the classroom.
On the following day we had to saw wood to create shelves for a brand new library and we finished two classrooms.
On day 5 and 6 we discovered the Safari life, slept in tents with the wildlife surrounding us. We got to experience the harmony of nature at its best with monkeys walking in gangs on the road and the elephants creating around the baby to protect it. "
Year 9 have been showing their green fingers/thumbs by trying to germinate cress seeds under various conditions, to see what is important for the seed growth.
