Day 1, Monday, May 27, 2013
Start on time and in the right mood for entry under the sun in Saint-Malo.
Rapid passage on a glassy sea and landing in Jersey equally sunny.
Warm welcome by the team of St. Brelade's College and distribution of our students in the classroom for the first course.
Then lunch break on the terrace before joining the bowling for great games, followed by a big air on the beach in Saint-Ouen's Bay bowl.
Children stay in great shape despite the length of the day (1 hour time difference as well) and the accumulation of emotions.
Back to school around 17:00 for the start in their host family.

Wake in the rain for everyone but the tide and the wind drove all this gloom.
The lunch break allowed everyone to enjoy his "packed lunch" on the terrace and in the sun.
The afternoon was devoted to a short hike on a rural path to visit the "Corbiere lighthouse."
Upon arrival, the "ice-cream" was a welcome break against a wild landscape.
The return bus was much appreciated after the 5 km walk.
Good night everyone and see you tomorrow for the next episode! ...

Another rainy morning but quickly dried the sea breeze
Classes begin at 9:30 am for our students, who, in groups, went to interview the island on the "Jersey way of life".
The lunch takes place again on the sunny terrace of the college.
A little surprise waiting for Chloe to his 13 years in the presence of the whole group.
The activities of the afternoon consists of a quiz team in the streets and the port of Saint-Aubin, followed by a sporty and playful sequence on the beach (football, volleyball, frisbee, etc ...)
The tireless children "whoop" for an hour on a deserted beach by the sea (more than 10 meters drawdown!).
Back in college to jump on the bus.
Tomorrow is another day.
Good night all.

As usual, the day started in the rain and the sky struggling to emerge.
And, as usual, the sun makes us the grace to dry the terrace for lunch.
A change in the program, due to technical details, we took them to the zoo "Durrell" instead of Mont Orgueil Castle, as originally planned.
The beautiful weather window allowed us to enjoy the visit in this beautiful park.
Cameras rattled around, cages, terrariums, ponds and aviaries.
Then back to college at 16:30, just in time for the children to take their bus to their host families.
Tomorrow and already the last day that no one has seen it happen so quickly.
Good night everyone and see you tomorrow.
Team Jersey.
