Duke of Edinburgh

This year, we had another strong cohort of students who took up the challenge of completing their Bronze and Silver DofE Awards. The award strives to empower young people; to support them as they learn new skills, overcome obstacles and build confidence and resilience – our students clearly demonstrated this!

Despite the slightly inclement weather on the training/practice weekends, the students supported each other – whether that was with the erection of tents, when blisters appeared or just encouraging their group members to keep going!

Now that the expeditions have been completed, it is not all over – the students need to persevere in completing all the other activities – volunteering, physical and skills – and getting their assessor reports uploaded, in order for these to be verified and subsequently receive their award.

Congratulations to you all for your endeavours to date – and huge thanks to Miss Johnson, Mrs Joint & Mr Thorpe for their continued support.

Mrs Richardson, DofE Manager
