All our grades got back underway this week. Our local teachers spent January preparing and thanks to donations we have managed to stock the school with some great materials. Our Phoenix College is dedicated to Rural Social Enterprise and many of last year's graduates have already found employment with local organisations. This year we continue with our six local college teachers and also six assistant teachers who are also our college students. We pay them and their University costs in the future; this year four of them start university thanks to their hard work last year.
Due to the huge success of our inaugural Phoenix Seven Continent Charity Challenge in 2015 we will be repeating it on Saturday 30th April. This year we will be asking that all funds raised will go towards implementing a sustainable plan of your choice so please do have a look at the link below for different targets from as little as $150 and also more information on challenges that are already in the pipeline which so far include the London Bridges Challenge (25km and 16 bridges) and the Wharfdale 3 Peaks in England; events in Boston and Austin in the US; climbing Acatenango volcano in Guatemala; painting the whole school inside and out in Honduras and hikes in both Ecuador and Perú. If you want to get involved, please do contact us on dom@thephoenixprojects.org
