Bronze Duke of Edinburgh

Please return all equipment as the Silver Duke of Edinburgh group is out on expedition next week. Remember to work on your project write ups.

A meeting will be held soon to hand out expedition sections, well done to everyone who completed! Don’t forget to update your dofe accounts as you complete work for the different sections.

I have more logbooks if pupils did not receive them.  Mrs Ward.
