Gold D of E Completed



Well done to both teams for completing their Gold expedition. The last two days have been somewhat wetter than the first but not enough to dampen the students spirits.

Gold DofE Round 2

Back up in The Lake District again with 2 teams for their assessed Gold expedition. Two days down, the weather has been kind to us and the teams are making good time.

Today was the boat diving day. This morning we all headed out to Comino, the small island between us and Malta where we dived the P31 Wreck in the morning. This was a fantastic new experience for a lot of the students who had not dived from a boat before and had to do free descents down "into the blue". We moved round the corner into a bay for lunch and then dived the Comino Caves in the afternoon. A shallower but amazing dive into and out of tunnels. On the way into the caves, we had some bread left from lunch and the Bream came and ate from our hands. See the video above of Mr Starks getting mobbed by hungry fish.

The OW students had their training dives 2, 3 and 4 in Xlendi Bay whilst the fun divers went to Cathedral Cave. Unfortunately after a night of wind the bay was a bit murky.
