Over 75 students from year 9 and 10 completed the expedition section of their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award in June. They had to be particularly well prepared as they faced sun, wind and rain across the course of the weekend.
Students walked a scenic route in the Yorkshire Dales and camped next to the River Wharfe. Having pitched their tents, each expedition group set about cooking the meals they had planned on their gas stoves. They served a range of culinary delights, including halloumi burgers and a variety of pasta dishes. The following morning, some groups woke up particularly early to prepare cooked breakfasts ranging from sausage and bacon sandwiches to pancakes with Nutella and bananas.
All students represented our school community incredibly well and the expedition was a celebration of the hard work they have put in to achieving the Bronze Award.
