A corner of a classroom on board the educational cruise ship Nevasa (1956) during or just after the Commonwealth Institute Cruise to West Africa. In January 1968 the Institute took nearly 750 sixth-formers and students from colleges of education with over 50 of their teachers and over 200 other adults on a cruise to Gambia, Ghana, Sierra Leone and Dakar. A large watercolour depicting stages in the cruise is on the wall in the corner and one of the scenes is a banner reading "Commonwealth Institute Cruise 1968 Welcome to Krobo-Odumase". This inland location in Ghana was one of the places visited when the ship was berthed in Tema harbour.
