Silver hikers pass with flying colours

A group of Year 12 students successfully undertook their assessed expedition.

Thirteen Year 12 students successfully undertook their assessed expedition for their Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award.

Their weekend comprised of walking 30 miles over three days in the New Forest. Students carried all their kit, spent two nights camping and were responsible for cooking their meals. An external Duke of Edinburgh Assessor assessed the students individually specifically looking at teamwork, navigation and camp crafting skills. All students passed with flying colours.

Many thanks and well done to those students who took part and made it enjoyable and a success. Many thanks also to Mrs Siva, Mr Dowie and Miss Pierce for their help and support.
