<strong>2015</strong><br />
This<br />
year we had fifteen year 10 students completing their Bronze Award,<br />
and seventeen year 11 students completing their Silver Award.<br />
Students have all undertaken periods of volunteering, learning a new skill and<br />
taking part in a physical activity. The activities have included coaching year 2 and<br />
3 children football, supporting students in the ASD centre, dog walking, learning<br />
cross-stitch, British sign language, tyre fitting, badminton, and much, much more.<br />
The final part of the award was an expedition where students plan and navigate a<br />
route including camping overnight, carrying all equipment and cooking on trangia<br />
stoves. The Bronze Award assessed expedition to Box Hill took place on Friday<br />
3rd and Saturday 4th July <strong>2015</strong> and the students<br />
had a fantastic time and all navigated their way<br />
without too many detours; even camping in a<br />
thunderstorm didn’t stop them. The Silver Award<br />
assessed expedition ran from Thursday 9th to<br />
Saturday 11th July <strong>2015</strong> and the students walked from Beachy Head around the<br />
South Downs. The glorious weather and beautiful setting by the coast helped<br />
keep their spirits up over the 3 day expedition through the blisters, sore shoulders<br />
and a couple of wrong turnings.<br />
Thank you to Ms Ledlie, Mr Biggs and Ms Hibbins for<br />
leading both expeditions.<br />
We hope that all<br />
these students will<br />
continue on to Silver<br />
or Gold next year and that their success will inspire<br />
lots of the other students to get involved for the first<br />
time next year.<br />

“As tiring and difficult the expedition maybe, carrying<br />
on is essential for success even if you take the wrong<br />
route because the feeling of knowing you completed it<br />
is worth it the most”.<br />
