Report: Terminale students from Institution Sainte Jeanne d’Arc discover the schooner TARA

Last September, I had the honor of accompanying the Première and Terminale students specializing in SVT from Institution Sainte Jeanne d’Arc in Dakar on a discovery of the TARA and the MICROBIOMES mission, which made a stopover in Dakar.

A big thank you to the entire team for their welcome, and especially to François AURAT, Versatile Officer, and David MONMARCHE, Diver Sailor and Deck Chief, for their explanations. Thank you to the MICROBIOME exhibition teams and the workshop facilitators.

Thank you to Coralie ALEXANDRENNE, SVT teacher, for this wonderful initiative.
