Visiting Embassy Academy Rodean with Embarque Educacional Brazil

This summer, a fantastic group of Brazilian students from Embarque Educacional attended Embassy Academy Roedean in the UK. They had a great time learning English, exploring London, playing elite sports, and making new friends from around the world. Check out their blog to learn more about their exciting “Embarque na Euro” adventure!

In July, a group of almost 50 teenagers visited Portugal, England and France on a language exchange to improve their English. The adventure began at the airport of Teresina with the presence of relatives and friends. With each second, the heart accelerated, until it was time for the dream to begin.

Passport in hand, it was time to board!

The first stop was Portugal where students visited the cities of Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais, before it was off to Embassy Academy Roedean in England.

Roedean is in the city of Brighton, the second most visited city of England, after London. IT receives students of diverse countries of the world. The place is super safe and looks like a castle, with a view of the sea front. Just imagine the wind!

From the boat it was possible to see several sights of the city from another angle, including the Tower Bridge and The London Eye, the fourth largest Ferris wheel in the world.
