A dedicated student in year 10 has been selected to travel to the USA with Girlguiding to take part in a trip of a lifetime.
Olivia Edwards (10C) is set for an American adventure next August on a trip to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Senior Section.
Olivia is a member of 1st Ashton under Hill Guides and during her 11 day trip she will travel to New York, Ontario and Massachusetts with five other girls for Worcestershire to participate in many challenges and to work with a charity of her group’s choice.
To fund the trip, the 14-year-old needs to raise £2,300, which she plans to fund-raise by hosting dinner parties, organising a car wash, selling cakes and bag packing at local supermarkets with her unit.
Olivia says “I am really looking forward to this rare trip and hope that it will help me to build my confidence and thrive in a more challenging environment than that of a usual classroom or work space.”
