Experiential Learning at SMPREP
Welcome back to all of our students, especially our high school students with adventures to share after international travel to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands, and Italy over Spring Break for two exceptional trips planned by our Dean of Experiential Learning Rob Greene. In Italy students explored Catholic and culinary highlights across Venice, Florence, Sorrento and Rome capped off with a private Mass at the Vatican. Beginning in Quito, Ecuador's capital, students immersed themselves in the history and culture before taking part in a service project at Rancho Primicias, a private reserve for giant tortoises in the Galapagos, and snorkeled, swam and hiked around an active volcano as part of the tropical adventure. This week, a group of students are visiting Valley Forge National Historical Park in Pennsylvania to discover more about the American Revolution. This summer, additional students will journey to Nairobi, Kenya where they will help support and serve the local community with Holy Cross Dandora Catholic Parish and St. James Primary School, followed by a four-day African safari. Five students will also travel to Japan this summer with Japanese Teacher Shiho Yoshida for an immersive two weeks at Koyasan High School as part of our exchange program. Safe travels Mariners!
