Let the games begin!

With their suitcases in tow, swag bag in hand, and bearing their school emblems on caps and hoodies, Nord Anglia students around the world descended upon warm and balmy Florida. Arriving by bus and plane, students were excited to represent their schools, meet fellow Nord Anglia students around the world and take part in a week of festivities and sportsmanship.

After checking-in to their hotel and registering for the Games, students lounged by the pool and unpacked as they familiarised themselves with their new surroundings. For dinner, they gathered at Planet Hollywood, a restaurant inspired by the glitz and glam of the movie industry. After a long day of travel, students ended their night at Disney Spring, where they enjoyed a stroll through the bright colourful lights of the Florida promenade.
