DofE Gold Expedition 2024

18 Sep 24

Congratulations to our intrepid team of Sixth Form students who completed their DofE Gold Qualifying expedition last week. The group were blessed with glorious weather as they trekked through Wales, spotting wild horses, paragliders and beautiful scenery. They all did a wonderful job of working together to navigate their route and set up camp. One group even completed their own personal challenge to do 4000 push-ups together over the 4 day hike!

If this looks like an adventure you'd like to take on, keep an eye out for information about signing up for DofE from Miss Langdon. You can begin working towards your Bronze award in Year 9.

Sheldon gave me confidence in my abilities and supported my ambitions. Going to a state school has many benefits over private in terms of real-world experience and being friends with a varied group of students. This has helped me in my life since school.
