Oxted and Le Rosey schools at the Nest

What a fantastic week! I wouldn't say late May is guarenteed good weather here in the south of France, but this year has been wonderful so far!

So good in fact that both groups this week went rafting down the River Tarn in shorts and t-shirts, and no one was bothered that they didn't have a wet suit, despite getting splashed by the other rafters!

And look at that for a blue sky!

Everyone worked fantastically hard this week, with Le Rosey collecting data for three lab reports, for the new Environmental Systems and Societies IB course; Mr Stenson and Ms Roche have never seen their students work so hard. We worked on ecosystems, pollution and energetics. Pretty good, I say.

Oxted School brought their year 10 students for the first time, and Hilda Shead (formerly Perkins, congrats to you both!) set up a good-fun week where we combined a river study, some work on weather and climate and tourism on the coast, with some fun activities including rafting, orienteering and a trip to Vulcania.

Hope you all had a great time!
