​On Wednesday, February 13, 33 Wethersfield High School students embark on a journey to the beautiful country of Belize. The journey begins by arriving at the airport at 4:15 a.m. and taking off by 6:00 a.m. from Bradley Airport.  After a three hour flight to Miami and then another two hour flight to Belize City, the group will reach their initial destination at the first hotel.


While there, the group will be staying in three different hotels scattered along the coast of Belize.  The second hotel is even located in the middle of the jungle.  


There will be lots to do including zip lining, cave tubing, scuba diving, hiking, and more.  These will all ensure a very busy week for students and their chaperones. 


A couple days in, the group will travel to a school and bring lots of school supplies for the young kids to use in their school day.  They will play games and interact with the children for the majority of the day.


Belize is located on the eastern coast of Central America on the Caribbean Sea . The small country has a population of around 375,000 and can be compared to the size of Massachusetts. 

Although the country is tiny, it contains a dense jungle with thousands of wildlife species and hundreds of offshore islands called cayes. Belize also has centuries of ancient history sourcing back to the Mayans, including several ancient ruin sites.


 The students attending are very lucky to be able to have this experience and we wish them the best!
