Class Afloat students visit St Mary's School

Canada-based SV Concordia arrived on Friday 14th March
 carrying over 40 students who study on board as well as help sail the ship. 
They are on an 8-month cruise around the world. 
The students came ashore and did a question and answer session
at St Mary's School with the children there,
on their experiences at sea and life on Tristan. 
 
     

 

They presented
Chief Islander Conrad Glass
with a plaque and
Administrator David Morley presented them with some books.

     


 

 

Photographs from
David Morley
show the Canadian students
in the school hall
conducting their
session with Tristan pupils

   

 

Next year they hope to return for a longer stay and hope to stay ashore overnight.
