Global Service Tours
Zimbabwe Service Project
In 2015, we pioneered a very significant community service trip to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe to visit the rural Jabulani School. The trip was a huge success we helped build assets, participated in teaching and learning, and carried donations of reading and mathematics books, sporting goods and other much needed resources. Students and staff also visited wonderful Victoria Falls and other exciting tourist destinations in the Victoria Falls National Park and Northern Botswana.

Vietnam Service Project
Since 2006 we have traveled bi-annually to Vietnam to undertake an international community service project. Our students raise funds to purchase materials and then, while living in the local village outside Sapa help the villagers build a house and make improvements to local schools. The tour also includes a comprehensive exploration of the Capital City of Hanoi, its northern ethnic minority provinces as well as an excursion to magnificent Ha Long Bay.

European Cultural Tour |
We have a sister school arrangement with Erasmus Gymnasium, Grevenbroich, Germany. Grevenbroich is very close to Cologne and Dusseldorf and to the Belgium and Netherlands Boarders.
Every year, approximately 20 pupils and two teachers travel to HVGS for a two week homestay program in August. Every two years we offer the European Discovery Tour where students stay with a host family from Erasmus as well as travelling through Germany, Switzerland and France. |
This is the perfect tour for students interested in art and history. Students and teachers travel through Italy and the UK visiting Pompeii, Capri, Rome, Florence, Milan, London and Salisbury. Students will visit historical sites, world-class museums, enjoy city adventures and farm stays.
