On the first stop the kids learned all about the oyster. They witnessed first hand the washing as well as the packaging process and then were able to taste the end result. All of our students were very brave and tried the oysters!
This is the view of the shoreline. That is not water your are seeing but mud. During low tide, the workers walk out into the mud to tend to the oysters because soon high tide will come and submerge them.
The oysters are kept in these mesh bags, which help keep them safe from predators.
The oysters all prepared for the students to try.
Below are some pictures of students trying the oysters for the first time.

The second stop was to the beautiful island of Le Mont-Saint-Michel. During this trip the students and teachers walked all the way up to the medieval monastery. The architecture was beautiful and the views were breath taking.
The students walking into the main walls of the city.
The view from the first flight of stairs!
The students are walking up one of the many staircases that lead up to the monastery.
It was very exhausting as you can see!
More stairs for the students to climb.
All of the kids in front of the altar of the church.
