Operation Wallacea - we offer our students the opportunity to be part of a significant overseas expedition. No matter which exotic destination is chosen, this is a challenging and rewarding experience that helps to develop important life skills and knowledge of forest/wildlife conservation, reef systems and marine research. As well as being personally enriching, this experience is superb for the students’ CV or university application.
