DUKE OF EDINBURGH BRONZE AWARDS!
Many congratulations to Henry Bull, Lily Butler-Mayer, Alex Evans Lombe, Poppy Fletcher, Joshua Graves, Christopher Long, James Martin, Myles McEvoy, Toby McNally, Oliver Phelan, George Rufford, and Guy Seagers who all – and this is a first for the school – completed and gained their certificates for Bronze while still in Year 10! (And just in time for the final whole school assembly last summer.)
The award is a significant commitment and these dozen between them undertook an extended period of volunteering (ranging from working in charity shops, helping keep a village green in good order and helping at an animal rescue centre), learnt or developed skills (music or shooting for example) and committed to a sustained programme of a new physical activity; not to mention two two-day expeditions in the local area (ah – I’ve just mentioned them). Magnificent.
