21 AKS students successfully complete Gold Duke of Edinburgh expedition

PUBLISHED 03 September 2024

21 Sixth Form students successfully completed their Gold Duke of Edinburgh expedition during the Summer holidays. It was a tough and character-building experience and many said it was the hardest thing they had ever done in their lives!

The smiles and happy faces at the end clearly showed their relief and satisfaction at having survived walking 80 Kilometres and wild camping over several nights.

They can all be very proud of their achievements.
