Morocco Team 1World Challenge designs and delivers outdoor educational programmes for school groups. They go everywhere, from one-off, one-day UK adventures to six-week expeditions across the world and progressive programmes through the years; they truly provide a life changing experience!

World Challenge is about education through experience and their expeditions offer the experience of a lifetime. Packed with physical challenges and eye-opening cultural exchanges in some of the world’s most beautiful countries, these exhilarating expeditions are also journeys of self discovery that benefit young people from all backgrounds.

Your journey starts here…

This term we have launched the following expeditions to go away in 2008 and 2009:

An incredible 101 Year 8 and Year 9 boys are going to Norway and Iceland in July 2008. We have 8 boys going on the scuba diving and trekking expedition to Malta in April 2008, there are 13 Year 11s and 12s going on the 3 week expedition to Peru and there should be between 50 and 60 Year 10s, 11s and 12s going on the month long expedition to Mongolia or on Dive Honduras in July 2009. 

There are a couple of spaces left on all of these expeditions, but your son needs to apply very soon to avoid disappointment.

We are also launching another very exciting series of UK expeditions. Letters for these trips will be sent home via the boys before Christmas:

Year 7s will have the chance to go on a 3 day Expedition to Buxton, Derbyshire in July.

Year 8s and 9s can go on a 4 day Expedition to the Forest of Dean in April

Year 10s can go on a 5-day expedition along the River Severn in the May Half term.

These expeditions will include some or all of the following: leading the expedition, navigating, trekking, climbing, abseiling, canoeing, raft building, taking part in adventure scenarios, buying their food, catering for themselves and camping.

Good luck to all the boys on their various fundraising targets over the holidays. I know there is a vast range of activities planned. Here is an example of a few: Bag packing at the various super markets, discos, car washing, raffles, cake sales, odd jobs and lots more.

If you wish to know any further information about any of the World Challenge Expeditions, please contact Clive Greenhough at the school via email crg@rgshw.com or on the phone through the school office.
