Kindergarten students of the reputable Mills Institute of Lifelong Learning and Success visited Providenciales International Airport as the highlight to the students week of learning about air transportation.
Sixteen students ranging between the ages of four and five made their way through the terminal facility to learn about domestic and international flights.
The tour, guided by Terminal Manager, Ms. Lavern Skippings and Curbside Supervisor, Mr. Terrance Smith began with the curbside passenger drop off area and continued throughout the building. The students were very inquisitive in asking questions and keen on answering questions about their experience on airplanes. They were greeted by the Airport Police Officer, Airline Representatives, Security Officers, Customs Officers and even Immigration officials.
As airplanes began their morning operations, students were allowed to watch a local flight depart the runway and take off to the skies. When asked “what was the best part of your tour?” a bright eyed bouncing male student replied “I liked seeing the planes”.
As a part of Education Week teachers were encouraged to take learning outside of the classroom and the TCIAA was happy to lend a helping hand by welcoming students to see air transport through our eyes.
