UIII Jersey Trip 2025
12 June 2025 - All
A few weeks ago, UIII pupils set off on an exciting trip to Jersey, where they spent several days enjoying all that the island has to offer. Blessed with beautiful weather, the group made the most of the sun, sand and sea, creating wonderful memories by the coast.
One of the main purposes of this trip to Jersey is to learn about conservation through the world-renowned Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust. They run an education programme for us, where we learn about the trust’s work, why zoos are important and how they help to preserve endangered species. Girls also got to take part in an animal behaviour project, design an enclosure and prepare enrichment food parcels which they fed to the Geladas (a type of baboon).
Other highlights of the visit included a lively evening of bowling and and a trip to Elizabeth castle, where the pupils even learnt how to duel!
This trip offered pupils a valuable opportunity to bond as a peer group, the perfect way to round off their time as UIIIs.
