Our Global Pathways and Partnership Program extends to inviting and hosting students within St Catherine’s through our Study Tour Program. Although this has been hampered by the pandemic, we hope to establish relationships with schools around the world, providing students from around the globe an experience of our School, our culture, our hospitality, and our friendship. Instilling in their students the values we hope to instil in ours. My favourite word in the English language is wanderlust, meaning “an innate desire to travel.” For me, this word means more than just a desire to travel and explore the world.
It means to explore yourself, to experience, understand, investigate, establish gratitude, empathise, question, establish a drive to want to do more and then give back. To understand we are part of something bigger, to see world issues through other people’s eyes and respecting that, being able to debate and discuss issues in an intellectual and informed way. Real growth occurs when we are out of our comfort zone. Wanderlust is the perfect word to define our Global Pathways and Partnership Program. Ms Lyn Zarifis Head of Global Pathways
