25 pupils complete their Gold Duke of Edinburgh expedition
9 June 2025

Over Half Term, 25 pupils embarked on an unforgettable adventure in the stunning Northern Lake District as part of their Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award walking assessment.
Over four days, the groups demonstrated incredible determination and teamwork, walking between 19 and 24 kilometres each day and camping for three nights. Despite facing a mix of rain, hail, and winds, their enthusiasm and resilience never wavered.
Every pupil who completed the Gold expedition should feel incredibly proud of what they’ve achieved. It was a fantastic display of perseverance, spirit, and commitment — a true testament to their character and teamwork.
