WORLD CHALLENGE 2019/ 2020 VIETNAM!

World Challenge is starting again soon and in 2020 we will be travelling to Vietnam! Wheelers Hill Secondary College works with the World Challenge Organisation to offer Year 9 and 10 students this once in a lifetime opportunity! Students who choose to experience World Challenge not only get to sightsee and visit some of the country’s best tourist attractions but also have the opportunity to work with small communities as part of a volunteer program and help a community in need by aiding in building a sustainable future.

The World Challenge program is available to all families, as students are encouraged to fundraise their own trip and work within a budget both leading up to and during their travel. Students learn the value of money, but the best part is they get to plan the trip themselves. The only three criteria for the trip is volunteer work within a community, a trek, and sightseeing.

World Challenge is a great learning experience for students that they would otherwise not get in the classroom. Through student ownership, this experience will inspire students to reach their full potential, shape character, build lifelong skills and strengthen bonds.

We will be running an information session for students on Wednesday the 19th of June.

Additionally there will be a parent information session Tuesday 25th June 6:30pm in the library.
