A look back on the incredible Kenya trip collection of photos.

🌍 Kenya Expedition – Day 13 (Final Full Day) Update! Day 13 marked the final full day of an unforgettable Kenyan adventure, and it was the perfect way to bring this incredible journey to a close. The day began with the Marungu Hills Eco‑Trek, where students explored the local landscape while developing practical bushcraft skills. It was a fantastic opportunity to reflect on everything they’ve learned about conservation, sustainability, and working in harmony with the environment — a fitting last outdoor challenge for a group that has given so much throughout the expedition. Later in the day, the focus shifted to community and culture as the students visited the Tumaini Women’s Group. Here, they learned about traditional beadwork, women‑led enterprise development, and were treated to vibrant traditional dancing. It was a joyful, colourful, and moving experience that highlighted the strength, creativity, and resilience of the local community — and a beautiful way to end their time in Kenya. As the sun set on their final evening, there was plenty of time to reflect on the journey so far: the hard work, the friendships formed, the lives impacted, and the memories created. From building homes and schools to conservation work, cultural exchanges, and once‑in‑a‑lifetime wildlife experiences, the students can be incredibly proud of everything they have achieved. Tomorrow begins the long journey home, but they leave Kenya with full hearts, tired legs, and stories that will last a lifetime. This has been a truly transformational expedition — one that none of them will ever forget. 🇰🇪✨ What a journey. What a team.

🌍 Kenya Expedition – Day 12 Update! Day 12 marked the highly anticipated Big 5 safari, an early start that was absolutely worth it! Although we are still in the wet season — making some wildlife a little harder to spot — the students were rewarded with an incredible range of sightings during the game drive. Throughout the safari, the group spotted giraffe, elephants, zebra, antelope, dik‑dik, gazelle, baboons, waterbuck, buffalo, an eagle, and even a hippo. While lions remained elusive, the excitement continued with the discovery of lion footprints, a thrilling reminder of just how close these magnificent animals can be. Following the safari, the cultural experience continued with a visit to a Maasai tribe. The students received a warm and powerful welcome, complete with traditional ceremony and dancing. They were then invited to tour the Maasai homes and were shown how to make fire using traditional methods — a fascinating and memorable insight into their way of life. An unforgettable day filled with wildlife, culture, and awe‑inspiring experiences. Tomorrow marks the final full day in Kenya. The students will take part in the Marungu Hills Eco‑Trek and bushcraft skills in the morning, followed by a visit to the Tumaini Women’s Group for beadwork, enterprise development, and traditional dance — a meaningful and celebratory way to round off an incredible journey. What an adventure it has been! 🇰🇪✨

🌍 Kenya Expedition – Day 11 Update! Day 11 marked an incredibly proud and emotional milestone as the students completed their community project at Marungu School — and what a transformation it has been. The photos tell an amazing story, with striking before‑and‑after shots showing just how much work has gone into refurbishing the Grade 3 classroom. From fresh surroundings to a revitalised learning space, the impact is clear to see. Not only did the students help physically transform the classroom, but they also went one step further by creating new educational posters to decorate the walls — adding colour, creativity, and a personal touch that will benefit pupils long after the group has returned home. With the project completed ahead of schedule, there was time to celebrate properly. The students enjoyed friendly games of football and netball with the Kenyan pupils, followed by some brilliant moments of cultural exchange as local students proudly showed off their traditional dance moves. A joyful and inspiring way to close such a meaningful project. It is fair to say the students have done an outstanding job. Their commitment, teamwork, and work ethic throughout the build have been exceptional, and they should be immensely proud of what they have achieved. Tomorrow signals the final chapter of the Kenyan adventure. With just two days remaining, the students will (very early!) rise at 4:30am for what is hoped to be the ultimate reward for all their hard work — the unforgettable Big 5 safari. Fingers crossed luck is on their side! 🐘🦁🦏🐃🐆 What a journey it has been so far! 🇰🇪✨
