At Wellington, the world is a classroom

Wellington College International Shanghai pupils recently had the opportunity to learn the value of being learners, connectors, changemakers and globally minded leaders on two educational excursions. On a trip to Kenya, Senior School pupils explored the East African country’s wilderness to learn about its wildlife conservation efforts. They toured the country’s parliament building, met with the minister of tourism and wildlife and lived the Wellington value of kindness by donating supplies to a local school. Additionally, the school’s Duke of Edinburgh Award excursion took pupils to Hainan Province for a challenging nine-day, 280-kilometer bicycle and camping trek. Along the way, they learned about the ecology of mangrove forests and how sea salt is harvested. They also had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the local culture by participating in local festivals.
