The recent Year 9 Bronze Duke of Edinburgh training expedition with Activ Adventures was, despite the changes put in place due to Covid, a great success. The 43 girls who were out and about in Richmond Park on Saturday 17 April and Epsom/Ashtead Common on Sunday 18 April did wonderfully well on their training expedition.
There were some blisters at the end of two very hot days and the girls definitely hit the 20,000 plus step count on the second day. Many thanks to those staff who came out and were on the ground over the two days. The girls appreciated the support, as did Mr Cox.
Year 9 came away tired, sore and with a few blisters here and there. But they did very well over the two days, and definitely lived up to our motto “Not words, but deeds”.
