JOURNEYS TO SCHOOL

An unprecedented photo report dedicated to children around the world

Hoëdic, France

  • Hoëdic, France

    In France, off the coast of Brittany, there are two sister islands, Houat and Hoëdic. The Melvan ferry ensures several crossings every day of the week, even in winter. On board every morning and evening are nine students, who commute four days a week between islands to attend school. Adaptability is the key to education of the children of Hoëdic and the surrounding islands: the school adapts to the environment instead of the other way around.
