Expedition 2022
The Expedition 2022 set off in July 2022 when we took twenty three students and leavers from Hurstpierpoint College to Zambia. The itinerary consisted of one week on project at Itala Foundation school and Cameron’s Orphanage Project, followed by one week R&R in the south of Zambia hiking in the Bakota Gorge followed by a visit to Victoria Falls.
During the one week on project we managed to achieve the following:
- Official opening of Cameron’s Orphanage with the District Commissioner and other local dignitaries.
- Dig and concrete foundations to 20 metres of boundary wall
- Build 20 metres of boundary wall.
- Remove roof and plaster from one rentable house, re-roof at a better pitch and re-plaster internal and external walls.
- Plaster internal walls of second rentable house.
- Play with and entertain children living at Cameron’s Orphanage, everyday.
- Help plant vegetable garden.
- Plaster new tuck shop
