Success on the Trail: Year 9 Complete Bronze DofE Qualifying Expedition

Congratulations to our brilliant Year 9 students who successfully completed their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award qualifying expedition!
Following just four weeks of training, 40 students from across the campus set out on their final expedition, tackling the scenic but demanding route from Ermington to Mountbatten. Their journey took them along the Erme Valley Trail and along the South West Coast Path, where they showed impressive resilience, teamwork, and navigational skills throughout.
This expedition built on their earlier two-day practice hike from Mountbatten to Whitsands earlier this term. Their experience on the practice hike clearly paid off, with all participants stepping up to the challenge and showing significant personal growth and determination.
Well done to all involved – a brilliant accomplishment and a true reflection of their dedication and team spirit.
