The Broadening Horizons programme run by Oxford Royale Academy was simply spectacular. The classes held challenged me beyond my comfort zones and allowed me to discover my true potentials. All of this was done in an environment that was so conducive and that gave me a sense of belonging despite being so far from home. Everyday was a new learning experience whether it was from our excursions to renowned cities or from a simple discussion with friends. The councellors and staff members always went the extra mile in ensuring that my two weeks spent in Oxford were memorable ones. They attended to our every need and built really close relationships with the students that by the end of the programme, it was extremely difficult to part with them. What I cherish the most are the friends I have made within the short period of time. Everyone was so friendly and so open to learning new things about each other through fun games and activities that made my stay even more special. This was indeed an experience like no other and one that has left an indelible mark in my heart.
