Geneva 2018

This month, some of our Sixth Formers flew to Geneva to visit CERN to see the Hadron Collider. The trip included a 3 hour tour of the facility and a visit to the United Nations and International Red Cross, both also based in Geneva.

Students took lots of photos to share – including some of Physics Monkey, who accompanied them on their tour…Inside the UN chamber…And under the Broken Chair sculpture across the street from the Palace of Nations. The 12-metre high sculpture symbolises opposition to landmines and cluster bombs. This is the first time CAST has visited CERN but we hope to repeat the trip on an annual basis for our Year 12 and 13.
