CLOSE to 400 schoolies arrived from Australia on Sunday and headed straight for Plantation Island Resort on Malololailai Island รน undeterred by the threat of a cyclone.
Waiting for their ride at Denarau Marina, the squally weather conditions did nothing to dampen their spirits. They are here to party and are detemined to have a raging good time come rain, hail or storm.
"This is an adventure, we don't care it's raining or if a cyclone comes, we're just glad to be here and are looking forward to getting on the island and having some fun," was the common mantra.
Schoolies is an annual event where graduating Australian high school students spend up to a week having supervised fun together.
Plantation Island Resort general manager Daven Sharma said his staff had been preparing for the week-long event for a while and extra security had been arranged to ensure the safety and security of all the students.
"The resort is locked down for the coming week- they literally have the whole resort to themselves. While they are accompanied by chaperones, we have also brought additional security on the island to ensure they have a great and safe holiday," he said.
The group leaves this weekend as another 400 will descend onto Plantation for their partying.
"We are ready for them," Mr Sharma said.
