Starting from under the spray of the Victoria Falls, Dane Court PE Teacher, Andrew White along with his cousins set off on an epic 550km ride through some of Zambia's most spectacular wildlife reserves. 30 degree heat, dusty, sandy roads, tsetse flies and adventure lay ahead:
As the sun rose on the morning of 10 August the team set off; beginning their journey to raise awareness of poaching and the need for education to stop this. Over past twelve months they had been fund raising to support the work of the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation (DSWF) who work extensively in Zambia on these issues with Game Rangers International (GRI). After passing through Livingstone Andrew climbed north towards Kalomo and the first stop on their journey.
For sports teacher Andrew White it was a busy summer in Africa and it all kicked off with a school expedition to South Africa and Namibia in July. Twenty Dane Court students finished their exams and jumped on a plane and headed for the wonders of Cape Town, led by Mr White and Mrs Opperman. Over the next few days they explored the city and the wonderful Fynbos as they headed for the Namibian border. With the desert now taking hold they found themselves at Fish River Canyon, the second largest in the world. As they sat there to watch the sunrise they experienced complete silence for the first times in their lives.
