@BdownSchool @Futura_Learning @OfficialTenTors participants on @DartmoorDevon this morning after an early start from school. First full weekend of training awaits the participants who will also be developing their skills alongside @AshtonParkSch for the second time this year.

[BDS Outdoor Ed. @BDS_OutdoorED]

Well done to all staff and pupils from @BdownSchool for braving an early start last Saturday to train for @OfficialTenTors on @DartmoorDevon. You were rewarded with beautiful weather and views as you followed your route along the western edge of the Moor.

Great to finally get our @OfficialTenTors training underway today in the beautiful Chew Valley with 22 very keen pupils from @BdownSchool @Futura_Learning. 12 miles completed and only 5 more training sessions and 5 months until the challenge at the end of April.

Hiking back to the minibus after a very calm night under canvas on Dartmoor. Well done to all 16 @Futura_Learning @BdownSchool Year 9 girls for stepping out of your comfort zone and taking part. I'm so pleased that you have enjoyed the experience.

[BDS Outdoor Ed. @BDS_OutdoorED]

@DofESouthWest Bronze Expedition Day 2 water stop for @BdownSchool @Futura_Learning participants. Suffice to say it's a warmer drier day than yesterday (which was a little soggy) 😁

[BDS Outdoor Ed. @BDS_OutdoorED]

DofE Bronze Expedition Day 1... I think we can safely say these boots have put in a shift 😂 More walking less rain (hopefully) tomorrow with @BdownSchool @Futura_Learning @DofESouthWest

[BDS Outdoor Ed. @BDS_OutdoorED]

Snack and water break on what has so far been a soggy start to our @BdownSchool @Futura_Learning @DofESouthWest Bronze Expedition..
