From the historic palaces and vibrant markets of Seoul to the bright lights, innovation and remarkable efficiency of Japan, our recent Korea and Japan tour was an unforgettable journey of discovery.

Over the course of two weeks, pupils explored the DMZ, stepped into centuries of history, experienced new cultures, tasted everything from traditional Korean cuisine to Japanese street food, navigated some of the world’s busiest cities, and embraced every moment with curiosity, enthusiasm and good humour.

Throughout the trip, our pupils were exceptional ambassadors for the school. Their resilience through early mornings, long journeys and busy schedules was matched by their openness to new experiences and their eagerness to learn from the world around them.

We extend our sincere thanks to the staff who accompanied the trip and to the families whose support made this experience possible. The friendships formed, lessons learned and memories created will remain with the pupils long after their return home.
