Mount Kilimanjaro is both the tallest mountain on the African continent and the highest free standing mountain in the world

Typically only 15% of climbers at any given time succeed with their summit attempt of Kilimanjaro

The oldest person to successfully reach Uhuru Peak was Valtee Daniel aged 87 years

On Uhuru Peak there is a wooden box containing a book in which almost every individual to reach the summit has recorded their impressions of the world from the highest point on the African continent.

The minimum age limit set by the National park Authorities for trekking to Uhuru is 12 years old

Class H flowerbed


This is a picture of Class H with the finished flowerbed we made with Mrs Whillance and Mr Stock.
Mr Stock showed us how to use gardening tools like hoes, shovels and forks. We were putting air into the soil by turning it over and making it healthy.
Mrs Whillance showed us how to look after the plants and care for them.We planted marigold's, dizzy lizzy's and fuchsia's now we have planted them in the flower bed and I think it looks really good
