We had planned our annual Year 8 trip to Chikwawa, and when the cyclone and flooding happened, we knew we had to do something. Our Year 8 class decided to set up a crowdfunding page for friends and family overseas who wanted to support Malawians in this devastating time of need. We promised that every penny raised would go to children in Chikwawa to help rebuild their lives.
Every year, all our classes from Year 6 upwards go on an annual trip that lasts between 3 days to a week. Our Year 8 class was the first class to venture out this year with a weekend down in Chikwawa for a weekend of friendship, bonding and meaningful experiences including a walk to Majete and an excellent game drive.

Many thanks to our students and teaching staff for their participation in this year’s Purple Pinkie day in support of Rotary International’s campaign to end polio once and for all.

Year 8 had a wonderful visit to The Polytechnic today where they got to work with the university’s expert staff and equipment to learn CAM techniques – even getting the chance to 3D-print their own designs! This trip was the culmination of hours of technical drawing, computer design and computer aided manufacturing.
Today, we were also extremely proud to launch our partnership with Rotary International and induct our inaugural Presidents for EarlyAct (from Key Stage 2) and InterAct (Key Stage 3). Hillview is the very first school in Malawi to run both these youth clubs.
