NEXUS DISCOUNT CODE

Run for Hope is back! We have a Nexus group discount for the Run For Hope 2020, so you can sign up via this link using the code GPNEXUSINT if you are planning to take part. This will allow for race packs to be collected and gathered at school for your collection.

It's a great event with options for a 3.5km run or a 10km run, and this year the route is back to the Marina Bay area.

OpWall Fiji 2020

Our learners from Year 10 to Year 13 have a fantastic opportunity to participate in a research expedition to Fiji next summer. Operation Wallacea, an international organisation which specialises in conservation research projects, is offering learners the chance to work alongside academic researchers on a project aimed at creating the first large national park in Fiji. This adventure will see learners collecting data on the flora and fauna of the forests, completing a PADI open water diving course, carrying out coral reef surveys and enjoying a homestay in a local Fijian village to learn about the culture.

The expedition will take place from 14th-27th June 2020, with a day or two of travel either side to be confirmed. We still have a few places left for those who would like to sign up!

Learners who are interested should speak with Ms Nicola or Ms Ioana for more details.
