At The Island Classroom on Taveuni Island, Fiji, learning goes beyond the environment—it’s about fostering connections and understanding. Our school visit program brings students from around the world together with local Fijian students for meaningful exchanges that build lasting friendships and broaden perspectives.
Through shared activities, cultural traditions, and open conversations, students discover the power of connection across borders. Whether it’s playing a game of rugby, participating in storytelling, or working on a community project, these moments foster mutual respect and appreciation for diverse experiences.
This unique opportunity encourages students to step outside their comfort zones, gain new perspectives, and embrace the value of global citizenship. The bonds formed here often extend well beyond the program, leaving a lasting impact on every participant.
Peers to Friendships
School visits are a highlight of any immersion experience on Taveuni, offering students the opportunity to connect with their Fijian peers in a meaningful and memorable way. These visits are about more than just observing—they’re an exchange of ideas, cultures, and perspectives that foster mutual understanding and lifelong friendships.
From participating in classroom activities to sharing sports and cultural traditions, visiting a local school is an eye-opening experience that inspires a deeper appreciation for different ways of life. It’s a day filled with learning, connection, and fun.
Deep Discussion
During the school visit, your group will have the chance to participate in everyday classroom activities alongside local students. This might include engaging in discussions, joining lessons, or collaborating on small group projects.
These interactions provide valuable insights into the Fijian education system and the daily lives of Taveuni students. For visiting groups, it’s a chance to see learning through a new lens and to share their own knowledge and experiences. The connections formed in these classrooms often spark curiosity and respect, leaving a lasting impression on all involved.
Outside the classroom, the day continues with plenty of opportunities for interaction and fun. Visiting students might join in a sports match, take part in traditional dances, or learn how to play local games. These shared activities break down barriers and build friendships through laughter and teamwork.
Lunch is often a highlight, where groups share a meal together, creating a relaxed environment for conversation and connection. By the end of the day, both visitors and local students leave with new perspectives and cherished memories of a day filled with learning, sharing, and joy.
