Would you like to work towards an internationally recognised award? You could be volunteering within the community, developing new or existing skills and going out on expedition as part of the award. If this sounds like the sort of thing you’d get involved with then sign up for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
If you’re in S3 – S6 then you can sign up to undertake either the Bronze or Silver, depending on your age, award within the school. Speak to members of the staff team – Mr McNicol or Mrs Kidson – if you’d like further information. Alternatively, you can view the participant information and register for award using the links below.
