We had a team of 9 students and 3 adults trek to Everest Base Camp and Kala Pathar (5550m) via Phortse Primary School, Gokyo Lakes and Cho La Pass (5368m). We had been busy fundraising since our expedition launch in July 2012 and left for our adventure on 24 April and returned to Queenstown on 17 May. We aimed to fulfil the theme for our journey 'Shaping Life Through Adventure' and our College motto Whaia te taumata - pursue the highest peaks and Deserve Success.

Through Changi Airport off to Kathmandu
Up early for our flight to Kathmandu. This photo was taken by the Sew Hoy family. I taught William several years ago in Dunedin. They overheard a kiwi accent and offered to take a picture. Small world! We arrive in Kathmandu at 12 pm
Good luck everyone! Small world Mason, I taught William Sew Hoy in Dunedin many years ago too!
