World Challenge
Wallington High School for Girls give students the opportunity to take part in the World Challenge programme.
It's a big world out there,
start exploring...
This is the motto of World Challenge UK; using overseas travel to empower and provide life altering forms of learning. They provide students with the opportunity to write their own stories, make their own mistakes, live their own adventures, learn and grow with peers, see the world with open eyes that are focused towards those around them.
Every 2 years Wallington students take an active role in supporting World Challenge projects which have involved teams travelling to many destinations around the world, including: Vietnam, Morocco, Croatia, Siberia, Tanzania, Venezuela, Kyrgystan and Montenegro. The trips involve a wonderful mix of adventure, combined with community work projects, supporting local initiatives.
Next Trip: 27 day trip to Malawi in July 2023
