I'm going to Tanzania in 2012 with World Challenge and I was wondering how much work you have to put into fundraising. I'm in year 10 now and I'll have just finished year 11 when we go so I'm going to be more committed to my GCSE studies more than anything else and I don't want this trip to put me off my studies cause I worry about exams anyway.

You look like you had fun. I'd appreciate it if you could reply.

hi, i'm not sure whether your school is the same, but we had two different year groups. people who had just finished year 11 and people who had just finished their first year at sixthform. i was one of the older ones, so while the year 11s were revising and doing exams, our lot sometimes just held fundraisers that would get us money for the group fund, as opposed to personal fundraising. don't worry you may think you'll get stressed with it all, but its all fine in the end.

@dramaqueenjaz I'm one of the older ones and there's 5 of us outta 18. I'll be in yr 11 when I go and the younger ones are in yr 10. By the way the World Challenge worker was talking you need to put a lot of time into this and I don't really have much time because of commitments to other things and I'm afraid that because of this I may let my team down which I really don't wanna do.

Btw thanks for replying and where are you r&r photos? I'd love to see them! xD
