A school like no other! Semester at Sea's MV World Odyssey spotted in Valletta’s Grand Harbour
Have you spotted it?

During the past few days, a very unusual kind of school has been spotted docked at Valletta’s Grand Harbour.

The MV World Odyssey otherwise known as the ‘Semester at Sea’ ship has been berthed in Malta for the past few days.

It’s a ship that has been transformed as the perfect school campus, where students get the chance to go round the world while doing their studies.

The concept gives the chance for adult learners from all across to join the SAS academic community where they can dock at a different port almost every day. They spend their day exploring and discussing all kinds of topics while on the ship.

Can you imagine being a student on a ship?
