Climbathon 2016

The Gurkha Welfare Trust continues to focus their efforts on raising funds to build a new school in Nepal. In building a new school, as well as creating a key infrastructure for the region, the project will also deliver a number of opportunities to forge strong links between Jersey and Nepal, including the opportunity for local graduates or under graduates to visit the school and undertake part of their teach training. We are also currently developing a key partnership with Highlands College, where four BTEC Sports students will travel to the school nearing completion to create a sports development programme for village pupils; as this would form part of their BTEC studies, the students will not only enrich their own learning but will bring enhanced skills back to Jersey.
