We would like to give a huge shout-out to these four pioneers, who have become the first learners in our school’s history to successfully complete their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Award! 🎉
We hope they will be the first of many and an inspiration for others to follow in their footsteps.
A special mention must also go to our DofE Lead, Sally, along with Poppy and Tom, who generously gave up their time to support the learners, stay over, and help them complete the expedition days. Your dedication and commitment made this achievement possible. ❤️
Congratulations to everyone involved on this fantastic milestone for the school! 👏🏅The Duke of Edinburgh's Award
