As we are currently not running Expeditions this year, your son/daughter is still eligible to receive a Certificate of Achievement (CoA).

As long as they can safely complete the Skill, Physical and Volunteering sections within current government guidelines!

My wife came home from her shift yesterday worried about the lack of visors, being asked to swob potential covid patients without the recommended PPE. Today she has been given one of the visors Mr Brewin and his gang made. Thank you 🙏 . #heros @CCGSPEDEPT @CCGrammarSchool
