At Sutton community Academy, our aim has always been to help our students grow into successful, confident, and ambitious adults. To do this, they need more than an academic education; social and cultural enrichment has a huge impact on young people’s development and inspires them to achieve more.

That’s why we’re thrilled to be supporting a group of our students on an expedition to Mount Everest Base Camp, Nepal, in April 2023. This is a huge undertaking, representing a rare and invaluable experience for these deserving young people, and we need the help of our local community to make it happen.

Many of our students have never seen a foreign country, and most would otherwise never have the chance to trek around a world-famous landmark 4,500 miles away. This trip will allow them to expand their horizons, developing a cultural understanding of the world beyond their immediate local area. You might think of it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but we believe that for these young people, it will be a platform to many more incredible adventures, experiences, and achievements throughout their lives.

Please help us provide life-changing experiences for our students by donating to our campaign via the details provided. Our students are doing incredible fundraising work to earn this experience, and your donation is a powerful statement of your belief in their ability to achieve and inspire. You’re choosing to support the efforts not just of a local school, but of a group of talented, hard-working young people.
