@KellieDofE @Miss_L_Geog @GOoutdoors @DerbyMoor @DofECentral @DofE I tried but there was already 15% off. Was a little disappointed I could get both 😂

Miss Lancaster’s boots died after a two week camping trip over summer (and several years of service!) so she’s treated herself to some smart new ones from @GOoutdoors How is your kit doing over summer? @DerbyMoor @DofECentral @DofE #walkingboots #newkit

What an amazing group of Bronzes we had this weekend!! All passed with flying colours! I love having Spot App trackers to show where our students walked over two days
Well done all! Have a week earned rest tonight and back to school tomorrow!

A very foggy morning today! Bronzes getting themselves up and ready for the day ahead! @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #camping #britishweather

All on camp and cooking! Our 2 groups have been brilliant today and have already impressed their assessors with the navigation skills and positivity @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #dofe #walking #navigation #togetherwesucceed

It’s been another record-breaking year!
More young people than ever in our region started their DofE last year – and there’s been a spectacular increase in volunteering hours. The numbers speak volumes, so thank you for all that you do to help make this possible.

Here we go again for the final time this year - the maps and gas are packed in Miss Lancaster’s car. Ready for Bronze assesses weekend - see you all at Bakewell at 8 tomorrow! @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #dofe #earlymornings #togetherwesucceed

@DofE_DMSA @DerbyMoor @DofECentral Really impressed with all our young people this weekend. Thoroughly deserved success for the Silvers. Bronzes are in a great place ready for their Assessment.
A huge thank you staff and ICY UK Ltd for a smooth running expedition weekend.

All done! Silvers assessment completed and passed. Bronze practice went very well! We have 26 tires but happy young people. Roll on 2 weeks for Bronze Assessment. Well done all! @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #dofe #assessment #togetherwesucceed

Final day! All groups up and out for the day! Walking to Bakewell to meet parents furled by breakfasts of porridge, crepes and hot chocolate - delicious 🥰 @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #breakfast #dofe #camping #walking

Everyone is on camp - Silvers reached camp before bronzes. A sudden downpour has everyone scurrying into their tents apart from the last few who were cooking @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #camping #dofe #togetherwesucceed

Lunch stop for Bronzes at Youlegreave- today they are walking from Bakewell to Barn Farm. Silvers on their way to their lunch stop at Rowsley. But which level will come into the campsite first? @DofECentral @DerbyMoor #walkinggroups #lunchtime #dofe #otogetherwesucceed

[DofE at Derby Moor Spencer Academy @DofE_DMSA]

Morning campers! All up and ready to go! Breakfast on the go - with meal pouches, chocolate ready brek and golden syrup porridge.
Let’s get going for 8am! Walking to Barn Farm via Rowsley @DerbyMoor @DofECentral #camping #dofe #breakfast #togetherwesucceed

It’s really important to follow the Countryside Code during @DofE expeditions 👍 #respect #protect #enjoy
