Academic Life > Scholarship > Scholars Talk Jan 07
In January, the Feltonfleet Internal Scholars were inspired by a presentation by David Tait who is planning to make a double climb of Mount Everest later this term.
Mr Tait, Father of Seth in 4SB, has already climbed Everest twice and he has set himself the challenge of climbing up the North Face and down the South Face and back up the South Face with the final descent of the North Face.
The scholars were amazed with camera footage and photographs of the previous climbs and learnt exciting and first-hand stories of what it is really like up there. Mr Tait also showed the scholars various items of equipment.
The scholars learnt that with hard work, preparation and desire they can all reach the targets that they set themselves.
