🌍 Kenya Expedition – Day 6 Update!
Day 6 kicked off with a meaningful and environmentally focused activity as the students headed to the beach to work alongside the Turtle Police, helping to clear litter and protect vital nesting areas. Their teamwork and effort made a real impact on this beautiful stretch of coastline.
Next came an unforgettable coconut adventure! Students watched in amazement as local experts scaled towering coconut trees with incredible skill — “like monkeys,” as the students put it — harvesting fresh coconuts for everyone to enjoy. It was both fascinating and delicious!
Back at camp, the learning continued with a marine conservation session led by the Turtle Police, giving students a deeper understanding of the challenges facing coastal wildlife and how local communities are tackling these issues.
As today marked the final day at their current camp, the evening was all about celebration. The group gathered around a glowing campfire, singing songs and reflecting on everything they’ve accomplished so far on their Kenyan adventure. In a moment that truly touched the whole team, the camp staff shared that this is the best group they’ve ever had — full of hard work, enthusiasm, cooperation, and an unwavering can‑do attitude. A huge compliment and well deserved!
Tomorrow the journey continues with a coach trip to Camp Tsavo, signalling the start of the wildlife conservation chapter — and of course, the much‑anticipated Big 5 safari! 🐘🦁🦏🐃🐆
Another incredible day completed, with even more adventure ahead! 🇰🇪✨
