 Ettiene at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro with a Brighton College tote bag raising money for charity

We are incredibly fortunate to have generous, forward-thinking pupils in abundance at the College. At just 15 years of age, Lower Fifth pupil Ettiene took it upon herself to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with her father to raise money for Spear Brighton – a charity which helps 16 to 24 years old who are not in education or employment and are facing barriers getting into the workplace.

The world’s largest free-standing mountain in the world, Ettiene reached the summit, holding a Brighton College logo high into the African sky. Hundreds of pounds raised for such a vital cause, the seven-day expedition was difficult and tiring affair, yet a selfless act worthy of praise.
