Students Travel to Chile and Argentina

Students who participated in Knights International this summer returned from their international tour of Chile and Argentina with Education First (EF). They explored culture, food, lifestyles and more while visiting Santiago, Vina del Mar, Valparaiso, and San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, and Buenos Aires in Argentina.

Here are some of their most memorable activities: 

• A graffiti painting experience/workshop in Valparaiso
• Touring Moon Valley in the Atacama Desert
• Taking a cooking class to learn how to make ceviche at the local fish market in Santiago
• Getting a tango dance lesson in Buenos Aires

The students got to connect their learning to real life while being open-minded, risk-taking International Baccalaureate (IB) global citizens. Many thanks goes to Mr. Bartrom for coordinating the entire trip and spearheading this incredible (annual) opportunity for our students. We're very proud of the way they represented the York Academy internationally!
