Episode 180. Ian ‘Rocky’ Rockwell and Rob Mann – The trip that changed our lives
In 2002, Ian ‘Rocky’ Rockwell took a group of year 11 students from Sydney to Alice Springs for an “adventure”. The kids were to trek the Larapinta Trail, ride camels, cook on campfires, and experience the “outback”.
That trip changed not only the trajectory of Rocky’s life, but some of the students as well. Rob Mann was one of those students.
In this episode, Rocky and Rob share the story about the trip that took place 20 years ago, how it impacted their lives, and how they went from student and teacher to mates and colleagues all these years later.
