Silver D of E



This weeked the Silver D of E Canoeists have been on their practice expedition on the River Exe and the Exeter Canal in fantastic sunshine and enough wind to sail the canoes.

Bronze D of E

The Bronze D of E Teams were out this weekend around the Beesands area of Devon undertaking their practice expedition.

More Gold D of E

Back out on Dartmoor again this weekend with Gold D of E groups. One group on a practice and another on assessment. As per last time we were treated to Dartmoor's best weather but it didn't put the teams off and they managed to fight their way through the wind and rain to the end.

Wet and wild on Gold D of E

This weekend, the Gold D of E students have battled wind, rain, mist and ice in order to complete their 3 day practice expedition. All students did well and completed the walk but all are hoping the qualifying will be somewhat warmer and drier.

My thanks to the other staff who helped out.

Gold D of E Biking

This afternoon students who wish to do a cycling expedition for their Duke of Edinburgh Award went to Cann Woods in order to practise their skills. 

Sixth Form Climbing

Today the Sixth Form Climbers headed to Marjon for a climb.  Everyone did some bouldering and top roping, whilst some of the more advanced climbers completed a few lead climbs.

Mountain Biking Day 2

Today the Ad Bac students went out for their second day of Mountain Biking.  They cycled a route they had previously planned starting at Prince town, they headed out along the Bridalway to Nuns Cross then continued on to Sheepstor and Burrator Resivour, picking up the dissued railway which brought them back to Princetown.  The students looked at developing their skills learnt the previous week as well as navigating their way around.
