One hour later everyone was checked in and heading for the security area.

The obligatory group photo was taken.

Even the rector, Mr Anderson and another teacher, Miss Derrick, came along to see everyone off – that has to be above and beyond the call of duty at 5am.

Amidst a few tears and plenty of hugs, the group were sent on their way and bleary-eyed parents headed home. At the time of writing the group are probably at 30000 feet somewhere over southern Europe heading for Nairobi. We look forward to hearing from them later today.
