Completing the Bronze DOFE Award<\/strong><\/div>\n
Successfully completing the expedition is the final part of the Bronze DOFE Award. A number of students are a little behind with the other three sections (Skill, Physical & Volunteering). I would encourage them to put some time and effort into updating their eDOFE account so they can gain their Bronze Award this year. All S4 students should aim to have all sections of their award completed by the October holidays.<\/div>\n
