UN Trip

As international students, we couldn’t miss the opportunity to visit the UN headquarter located right here in NYC. The 10th graders had just finished studying WW2 and the establishment of the UN as an international peacekeeper so this field trip was all the more meaningful. The students got to speak to a survivor from the Hiroshima bombing, they took a picture in front of the portrait of Mr. Ban Ki Moon, the general secretary and we also went on a group tour where students learned about all the work the UN does for world peace and development. It was an eye-opening experience for us to see the collective efforts of the global society to make this world a better place.
