This term in DofE Club, students have been busy building the core skills they’ll need for their Bronze Award journey. We’ve focused on team-building activities, learning how to put up tents efficiently, and practising essential navigation skills. Students have also taken part in route-planning workshops and meal-prep sessions, developing confidence in organising their own expeditions. Students will be practising preparing their meals for the Adventurous Journey next week, remember your ingredients everyone! Alongside this, they have been keeping track of their hours for the three weekly sections—Skill, Physical, and Volunteering—and many are already making great progress.
A kit list has now gone home with students (also attached here!), and we kindly ask parents and guardians to take a moment to review it. This will help ensure that everyone is properly prepared for the upcoming expedition (Practice - February, Qualifier - March) and has the correct equipment to stay safe and comfortable. Thank you for your support as we help our young people build independence, resilience, and practical outdoor skills.
