Fancy taking part in a 27,000 nautical-mile adventure without leaving your classroom? Register for next term’s HSBC Global Education Challenge web service and follow the exploits of single-handed, around-the-world racer Graham Doulton as he competes in the Around Alone 20023 yacht race. His journey starts on September 15 in New York. The free website is for 9 to 12-year-olds, their teachers and parents, and is an interactive education programme based on Graham’s experiences in his high-tech yacht Hexagon. Children get their own log-ins to take part in online activities.
