Students attend Buckingham Palace for Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award
The following students - James Dobson, Nick Hadjiyiannakis, Daniel Murray and James Peebles all spent a wonderful day at Buckingham Palace celebrating the completion of their Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award.
This is not only a tremendous achievement gaining all 3 levels while still at school but it also shows a high level of personal commitment , dedication and support from parents . The boys all found Bronze quite straightforward but Silver tested their resilience as the conditions on the expedition were more challenging in terms of terrain and weather. They then started Gold at the beginning of Year 12 so they could finish most sections by the end of the summer term and concentrate on their studies in year 13.
Many congratulations to them and also to Edward Shakespeare , Sophie Finney, Isobel Rawlinson and Maisy Ray who will attend Gold celebrations at the Palace at a later date.
