Bienvenue à La Belle Province!

For the first time, Cape Henry students ventured to Quebec, where they spotted whales, hiked to incredible fjord views, danced at an Indigenous pow wow and harvested sap to make maple syrup.

We hope to visit this beautiful province again!

“I wanted somebody to be able to follow in my footsteps who otherwise couldn’t afford it. Cape Henry changed my life and I want to be able to change others’ lives.” —Mr. Matt Audette '92

KENYA 🇰🇪❤️ This incredible trip provided our students with unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, and we are so grateful.

"One of my favorite memories was going to the white rhino conservatory. I learned about how they are attempting to save them by using IVF. But the best experience was meeting the people from the Masai tribe and learning about their way of living as well as dancing with them. Kenya was so fun and I’ll never forget it." —Isabella Nator

Our seniors' final Nexus adventure took them to the Philippines! ✈️ 🇵🇭

On these beautiful islands, students explored an underground river via canoe, hiked through lush landscapes, snorkeled, camped and got up and close with live crocodiles! 🐊

Vietnam and Laos 🇻🇳🇱🇦

From planting rice in a rural village to exploring the vibrant markets of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, our students had a truly spectacular trip to southeast Asia.

In Vietnam, the group learned about the profound effects of the war with the United States, participated in a coffee workshop, enjoyed a homestay in a rural village, sampled amazing street food, and utilized 400-year-old techniques to throw pottery.

Adventures in Laos included a Mekong River cruise, weaving workshop, waterfall hike and many lessons about Buddhist traditions.

We are grateful to these nations for hosting Cape Henry! 🌏

🐨 Hugs from Australia!🇦🇺

On the Gold Coast, Cape Henry students were fortunate to stay with host families from Hillcrest College. Their daily adventures brought them in close contact with Australian wildife, including koalas, lorikeets and kangaroos!

Travelers also learned about Aboriginal culture during a walkabout, dove the Great Barrier Reef, and spent nights on the beautiful waters off the coast of Cairns.
