World Challenge Abseil day

We are taking 15 students from school on a three week expedition in June/July to Kyrgyzstan on the Western Chinese border. It's a country of high mountains and empty spaces - the students have to plan the expedition, get visas, arrange some community service (with Save the Children) and organise transport - basically do everything!

The students are attempting to fund raise the full cost of their expedition - through a combination of charity events, jobs and sponsorship. So far they've raised money mainly on their own but on Saturday they're having an abseiling day at school. Here's their article for the school bulletin:
