Our Silver DofE group completed their practice expedition this week. Humidity and hills are always a tough combination, but the group showed great resilience and pushed through. Great effort, well done!

Well done to both groups who passed their expedition yesterday.🥳 Such a positive attitude from everyone across the two days - nothing (like the heat ☀️) phased you! It was also lovely to see how you all bonded as a group too. Smashed it! 💪 @BraesHigh @OutdoorBraes #article29

Our final S4 Bronze groups organising their meal plans & kit for their assessment expedition next week. (It appears one group will be bringing lots of marshmallows! 🧐) Excellent communication & collaboration shown in this planning stage! 👍

Day 2: After the group FINALLY left the campsite (cooking bacon took a long time this morning!) they walked up two more hills on their route out.

Huge well done on passing your qualifying expedition, you've been a brilliant group! 🥳

Well done to another of our S3 Bronze groups on their practice walk yesterday. Great teamwork and lots of fun, stone skimming was a highlight! The walk was rescheduled due to your big rugby game, so wishing you the best of luck on your match today! @BraesHigh @OutdoorBraes #DofE
