expeditions
Year 12 were treated to an inspiring talk by TV adventurer
and writer, Rob Lilwall. Rob, who trained as a Geography
teacher with Mr Carlyle, has spent the last few years
undertaking a variety of extreme expeditions. These have
seen him travelling on foot, by bicycle, and by boat, through
some of harshest corners on earth, including the frozen
wastelands of Siberia, the hidden valleys of China, and the
lonely passes of Afghanistan. His two most extraordinary
expeditions, ‘Cycling Home From Siberia’ and ‘Walking Home
From Mongolia’, were commissioned as television series
for National Geographic, and his motivational talks have
captivated tens of thousands of people in Asia, Australia,
Europe and America. Our students were enthralled with
Rob’s tales and were really engaged by his motivational
messages. If you would like to know more about Rob, his TV
