Godspeed K1!
[slideshow]Kayak and Down Island Trip rotations are in full-swing this week at The Island School. On Monday morning the first group of kayakers left Cow Pointe on their three-day paddling excursion, while the rest of the summer term students piled into two vans to head down island. Each group will be out until Wednesday and on Thursday they’ll swap paddles for vans and vice-versa.

On Monday of this week K1 departed girls dorm cut and began their 8-day kayak expedition as the kayak rotation got underway. While they were headed out on the water, K2 headed down island for their trip to the north end of Eleuthera. After returning yesterday from their trip K2 left The Island School this morning for their 8-day trip. The first group of kayakers are preparing for their solo experience over the next couple of days and will be back next week. The other groups, K3 and K4, are on campus doing their academic rotation and will be doing their own trips in the upcoming week.

I’ve lived here for over seven months, but I’ve never spent that much time looking up at the sky. The students leaned back in their Continue reading
A week of adventure begins.
I awoke this morning to a howling wind and thought to myself “uh-oh”. But by the time we gave K1 and K2 kayak trips a big group hug around the flagpole, the wind had already begun to settle
