Incredible Indian Journey - 12th July 2011
From the 2nd to the 9th July, eight students from four schools in Wandsworth, including Burntwood Sixth Formers, Annie Gingell and me (Lucy Dyer), were on a school trip to India.
We were lucky enough to gain places on the trip by winning an inter-school competition and a condition of accepting the place was to complete an extended project using knowledge gained from the experience. The trip was to Mumbai and during our stay we visited some of the Ryan International Schools with which Burntwood has an international link.
We also went to a women’s liberation organisation and saw Dharavi, one of the world’s largest slums. We experienced the real Mumbai, eating traditional foods and dancing in the monsoon rain. It was a once in a lifetime trip that we are all grateful for. We had an amazing time. We made some great friends and learned a lot along the way too.
