DofE Gold Expedition

Year 12 pupils complete their DofE gold expedition in wet weather in the Peak District

This looks like a grainy old photo, but actually it is the Team known as the ‘Ostriches’ standing triumphantly in the mist on highest point of  Kinder Scout. They were among 28 of our year 12 students who took on the rain and the mud while successfully completing an epic 4 day expedition. Both Ed and Charlie chose to test how deep the bog was, and they found that it came roughly up to their armpits! Congratulations to the Ants, the Elephants, the GOATs, the Ostriches and the Sloths.  They were all marvellous.
