In July 2024, St Cuthbert's first World Challenge Expedition Team headed for Morocco.
Arriving in Morocco, the boys found the heat to be somewhat different from home. However, after an 11pm arrival at the hotel in Marrakech, a good night's sleep, and a good breakfast, they were ready to head to the High Atlas Mountains.
Arriving at Toubkal Base Camp and ready to leave for the summit at 4am! An early start.
An early start, a long trek, but a fabulous achievement.
Following a successful trek, the team headed for the community and project phase of their expedition. A community initiative where the team helped to lay concrete paths for a local village community. They also had some cookery lessons!
Reflecting on the expedition Felipe said "It was an invaluable experience, not just in terms of building confidence and perseverance during difficult times, but in strengthening relations within our group. It is certainly a trip that I will remember for years to come."
