Year 9 explore Essex and Suffolk in Bronze Practice Duke of Edinburgh Expedition

On the first weekend of May, 72 Year 9 students embarked on their Bronze Practice Duke of Edinburgh Expedition across the Essex and Suffolk countryside.

The intrepid students navigated in ideal conditions, as the weather was bright, dry and not too hot – perfect for enjoying the green scenery. One girl even celebrated her birthday on the Sunday evening, with glowsticks and brownies on the campsite.

We would also like to thank all the staff who made this expedition possible.
