World Challenge students head to Peru

by Miguel Williams, Year 10

In less than three weeks, the 2016 World Challenge team will be heading to Peru for one month. World Challenge is an organisation that sends school groups overseas to engage with the local community and participate in hikes. We are super excited to be involved! For our month in South America we will be doing community work, including assisting in building a library and playground in the Yanque District and going on six days of hikes. So far, we have raised almost $5,000 towards our trip but we are still raising money, so keep an eye out for any fundraisers around the school. In addition to this, be sure to look up and join our Facebook page (FCC World Challenge - Peru 2016 https://www.facebook.com/groups/662433320580124/ ) so we can keep everyone updated while we’re away!
