Dear Parents/Guardians,

I am excited to share that Centre Mountain Lellum is planning a Spring Break 2027 trip to South Africa!  Over the years, I have had the privilege of leading 12 international trips with students and their family members from Spencer, Belmont, Royal Bay and Centre Mountain Lellum.  We've been to Egypt, China, Japan, Costa Rica, Europe, Peru, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and most recently to Galapagos, Ecuador.

Next year, we are thrilled to have another opportunity to travel back to South Africa! This trip will include an unforgettable safari experience to Kruger National Park which is truly one of the highlights of visiting South Africa. The last time I visited was in 2019, and it was honestly one of the best travel experiences I have ever had.  Seeing wildlife up close in their natural habitat is amazing and I know students will create memories that will last a lifetime. 

At this stage, we are looking to gauge interest from students and families from our school community and across SD62.  If you or your child may be interested in participating, please let me know before May 27th so that we can begin planning! 

The following link includes the price and itinerary. We've been fundraising for the year and have $300 for each participant who signs up by the end of this school year.  We will continue to fundraise next year for tips and some spending money.  Please note that the price includes flights, transportation, hotels, all meals, a full-time tour director, entrances and expert local guides
