#tbt to Gozo (Malta) circa 2012 - what a dream! Go #tbt to Gozo (Malta) circa 2012 - what a dream! Gozo is the second largest Island in the archipelago. 💡Fun fact: Calypso’s Cave, overlooking the glorious red sands of Ramla Beach, is alleged to be the cave referred to by Homer in The Odyssey. The story goes that Gozo is Homer’s Island of Ogygia and the cave is the one where the beautiful nymph Calypso keeps Odysseus as a “prisoner of love” for seven years. 😮 #ClassAfloat #sailing #schoolatsea #experientiallearning #travel #gapyear #studyabroad #schoolatsea
If you can't be ON the water, why not dive into a If you can't be ON the water, why not dive into a nerve-wracking story about the 1968 race between 9 sailors who set off to single-handedly circumnavigate the globe nonstop? 😮 Read all about their journey in A Voyage for Madmen, written by Peter Nichols. Another great recommendation from Class Afloat's Director of Operations, Bronwen L. #bookclub #ClassAfloat #nautical #goodreads #gapyear #sailing #tallship #studyabroad #internationalschool

Let's continue getting to know our beautiful ship! Let's continue getting to know our beautiful ship! Today, we introduce you to the Aft Deck, Upper Decks and Breezeways: The Gulden Leeuw has a lot of common deck areas in relation to most tall ships. Students use these areas for socializing in small groups when not in class or on watch, relaxing and studying. When not in use for classes, the Aft deck and table is a popular spot to congregate and socialize or work in groups. Take a tour of the whole ship on our website ➡️ https://bit.ly/2GikxiF #gapyear #highschool #university #schoolatsea #guldenleeuw @guldenleeuw #experientiallearning #tallship
On October 5th, World Teachers' Day, we celebrate On October 5th, World Teachers' Day, we celebrate the incredible faculty here at Class Afloat and we THANK YOU for the passion, support and energy you bring into the class room each and every day. 👏 👏 👏 "In this crisis, teachers have shown, as they have done so often, great leadership and innovation in ensuring that #LearningNeverStops, that no learner is left behind. Around the world, they have worked individually and collectively to find solutions and create new learning environments for their students to allow education to continue. Their role advising on school reopening plans and supporting students with the return to school is just as important.”- Joint statement from Audrey Azoulay, Director-General of #UNESCO, Guy Ryder, Director-General, International Labour Organization, Henrietta H. Fore, Executive Director, #UNICEF, David Edwards, General Secretary, Education International on the occasion of #WorldTeachersDay 2020 @unesco @unicef @guldenleeuw #highschool #university #gapyear #canadianschool #internationalschool #privateschool #experientiallearning
Residential schools opened in 1876 and were design Residential schools opened in 1876 and were designed to remove Indigenous children from their communities, families, and culture. It is estimated that 150,000 children were placed in the system, and that 6000 children died while attending residential schools. The last residential school closed in 1996. Let that sink in. The negative impacts and trauma of this cultural genocide, as well as the continued oppression and systemic racism against Indigenous people, is still apparent today. We must do better. Today we honour the healing journey of the survivors of residential schools and their families, and honour the memory of those who who did not survive.
