Turing Scheme Visit to The Seychelles!
Students left school Monday 5th July to fly to The Seychelles, students flew from Newcastle airport to Dubai and then onto their final destination.
The following day students settled in with a walk into the Capital Victoria, where they took in the incredible scenes of the local food market and the botanical gardens. They then took the ferry to Mahe island where they drove through the jungle (a world heritage site) to their evening destination.
Thursday students visited the local school, while there they did multiple lessons. Maths (enlargement) English (creative writing) Science (wave, length and amplitude) The day finished off with watching the sun set over the ocean while they sat on the beach next to the school.
This has been a once in a life time experience for our students and we can’t thank Mrs Johnson enough for all her hard work in planning of this visit.

“My favourite part of the trip would be all of it, it was an excellent experience. I learnt about the school experience for some children in the Seychelles. I would definitely recommend this trip to others.”
“It was 100% the best week of my life. I loved learning about the landscape and culture, and I really enjoyed finding out what life is like on the islands. My favourite part was definitely spending time will all of my good friends and I can safely say I’ve got a lot more close friends now than I had before we went. ”
