Keep up the great teamwork, Year 9 @BeaconDofE!

Year 9's Bronze Qualifying Expedition is going well and the groups are still in good cheer at their various checkpoints, coping well with a bit of rain. All teams are really pulling together. We are very proud of them all! #DofE #DofEBronze #MakeYourMARK #TeamBeacon

All groups have set off on Day 1 of their DofE Bronze Qualifying Expedition walks and are excited for the adventure ahead. Good luck, everyone! #DofE #DofEBronze #MakeYourMARK

What were the chances that I’d bump into a group of my students from @BeaconDofE whilst taking the dog for a walk in my local field this morning?!?! 🥾 🐾

All Silver @dofeuk groups have had a great start to their second day on expedition! This morning started well with all groups up and breakfasted and packed bright and early. Here is the view from the first checkpoint. Have a great day everyone - keep those hats on!🌞 #DofE

Our #DofE Silver Expedition groups returned to camp in good spirits yesterday and had fun exploring the campsite and its beautiful setting in Seaford before buidling a campfire and settling in for the night. Today, they set off again for day two and will head inland!

All DofE Silver Award groups are smashing their Silver Expedition on Day 1 of Qualifying! A lovely day walking in the sun, lots of smiles and wonderful views. The first groups will be arriving at camp shortly! #DofESouthEast #DofE #DofESilver #TeamBeacon #MakeYourMARK

All @beacondofe Bronze groups showed determination and good teamwork yesterday. Back at camp, the students even found energy for a long jump competition and running races before getting snuggled up in their tents. All teams are now out navigating on their own in the sunshine!
