Many children grow up and become young adults without ever knowing anything beyond their borders, and this kind of teaching opens up their minds and thinking, as it helps create a desire to learn what lies beyond the immediate environ and to query the order of local events/affairs vis-à-vis those abroad. Depending on how the virtual trips are taken/given, they can help the kids appreciate certain realities within their vicinity as they get to teenage and become more embracing of other cultures, as they get to adulthood. Wish you all as you keep the kids learning. Grace Ngugi I am a Kenyan, studying in South Africa and I commend the work your school is doing in these virtual trips.
