The fellow Churchillians all gathered up on the Astro on the day of the Long Ducker, and despite the bad weather, we pushed on with our ball-throwing stall and tried not to let the weather dampen our spirits. People competed for snacks and toys as prizes for throwing in two balls out of three, all while raising lots of money for our house charity, Wheel for Oneness.

Wheel for Oneness also came to the Long Ducker, and they quickly became the spotlight of the run as Anson Wong and other fellow Harrovians carried wheelchair member Yip Cham-Kai along the MacLehose trail to complete the 8-kilometre short ducker. After the success of the run, they opened a wheelchair obstacle course stall on the Astro, where someone in a wheelchair must guide a blindfolded person to navigate through the maze without hitting the cones!

This stall aimed to demonstrate the hardships of people who are physically and visually impaired, and this will be further demonstrated in an initiative next year, where Mr Yip Cham-Kai, accompanied by two Harrow students, will attempt to beat the Guinness World Record for the Fastest Circumnavigation by Scheduled Flights, where he will try to fly around the world in less than 39 hours, all while in a wheelchair!
