However, the schools and the way the lessons are taught here are different from ours,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that he would have liked to stay longer on La Digue as it is a different kind of place from what he is used to seeing.<\/p>\n<p>Collect Maurane, another student, said she has had a great time so far and had witnessed many similar aspects to Rodrigues. However on Praslin she was intrigued by the coco de mer and other endemic species in Valle\u0301e de Mai.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHonestly like my colleague said, Seychelles is very similar to Rodrigue. However La Digue was a whole different scene due to the lack of motor vehicles on the island and their school had kindergarten, primary and secondary all in one compound. It was interesting to see this and the people are really nice and welcoming although some students seemed quite shy. I just kept asking questions and it was fun,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Marie-Laurence Franc\u0327ois, the head teacher of the Grande Montagne College, said the visit falls under a scheme where a selected group of students get the chance to discover other islands through an educational trip.<\/p>\n<p>Seychelles was chosen as their first destination and the group comprises art and design students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have come to look at how art and design is being practiced here and also the cultural differences and similarities,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She added there was also a project which will enable teachers from Rodrigues to observe teaching methods practiced in Seychelles, especially the teaching of English as a foreign language, to be able to identify their weak points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/seychelles\">Seychelles<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Seychelles.
