Taking place on the unspoilt Kenyan coast, this challenge involves building much-needed classrooms for a primary school. Currently mud-walled and without toilets, the school needs a lot of work to turn it into an inspiring learning environment for its pupils.
Highlights of the trip include working alongside local people to transform the school and exploring the beautiful scenery of Kenya.
