BSB Students Explore the World!

We’ve got more updates from our student trips today, including some amazing pictures from all over the world!

Year 8 students in Montreal explored the city’s Underground City, did some shopping and went to an animal observatory.

Check out their adventures and some amazing pictures on the trip’s blog, and stay tuned for some student-made video diaries to be shared soon!

Year 9 students continued their exploration of Arles, France, visiting a palace that once housed several popes, and a palace that now serves as a branch of the Louvre museum.

More information on their adventures and photographs of their journey can be found on Mr. Fakoury’s blog.

BSB students are also busy in Madrid, Spain, reconnecting with the students from our Nord Anglia Education sister school, International College Spain, who visited Boston in April. Check out that trip’s blog for pictures and updates.

Year 7 students in Washington, D.C. are continuing their whirlwind tour of the nation’s capitol today! They’ve been very busy, visiting various memorials on the National Mall and even having a water balloon fight downtown.

A big thanks goes out to our SAIL leadership club students for their help on the Washington trip! Check out BSB’s Facebook page and YouTube channel for updates, photographs and videos from the students on that trip.

Update from the Washington, D.C. Trip

Students have been very busy since landing in the nation’s capitol Monday morning! They’ve already toured various Smithsonian museums, visited the U.S. Capitol building and Mount Vernon, George Washington’s Alexandria home, and even went on a “ghosts of Alexandria” tour!

They’ve been sharing a lot of great pictures on Twitter, so make sure to follow @BSB_School and @thereseandrews to get live updates on their adventures!

BSB Students Take Their Learning Abroad

While there is plenty of learning still going on in British School of Boston classrooms this week, many of our students have taken their lessons overseas– joining together with other international schools for some week-long cultural experiences.

Students in Years 10 & 12 are visiting Madrid, Spain this week, staying with host families and learning alongside students from our Nord Anglia Education sister school, International College Spain.

Students from the Spanish school visited Boston earlier this spring, and will now be showing our students around Spain’s capital city.

On Monday, BSB teacher Ms. Rosales reported that students had settled in to their host homes and were busy sharing Boston culture with the Spanish school (and vice versa!).

BSB also has a group of Year 9 students visiting a school in Arles, France this week. Like the Spanish exchange, the French students came to Boston earlier this year and will now be hosting our students.

The group left Boston Saturday and are now enjoying a day with their host families. On Tuesday, students will visit the French school and begin learning about the culture of Provence.

Many of our middle school students are also on trips this week. Year 7 students are visiting Washington, D.C. and our sister school there, and Year 8 students are visiting a school in Montreal.

Stay tuned this week as we continue to share updates and photos from the trips!
