Day 19: The Bronte Parsonage Museum from a student’s perspective, Hwa Chong Institution, Singapore

Bacon and eggs again. Later, an olde house upon a recluse hillside a galaxy away. Well, at least the air is warm with the glorious blaze of the sun.

Day 11: World Fair

Today was another busy day in the Reach diary. The students attended lessons as normal in the morning, before making their way to Downing College for the group photograph!
