NATAS staff, together with the many families and friends of the NATAS SWET congregated at Changi Airport Terminal 2 to give the girls a hearty send off on a Saturday morning.

After more than four years of intense training and preparations, the six ladies are finally able to attempt to conquer the highest mountain in the world.

Dr. Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports, who is also the team’s patron, turned up to show his support for the ladies, thus boosting their morale further.

The team will be updating their progress via their website, www.womenoneverest.com.
