The Downs can feel like the top of the world on crisp clear days like Tuesday. Captured beautifully by one of our Silver DofE participants in this snap by Alfie. ⁦@BedesHead⁩ ⁦@DofESouthEast⁩ ⁦@DofEKatrina⁩ #southdowns

First year OP Trip is full of busy adventures! Here’s a #snapshot of what group 11 got up to yesterday in #Edale @bedesnews @dofe_s @BedesHead

A week of expeditioning and cross-curricular learning in the Lake District #AcademicPE #BeCurious #BeCourageous #BeCompassionate #BeConscientious #STEM #Science #Geography @BedesHead @StemBedes @dofe_s @DofE #GoldDofE

Pink team on the final leg of their exped. On the old coffin road from Wasdale to Eskdale. Coffin or ‘Corpse’ roads are the high moorland tracks that once took the dead from their remote hamlets to their nearest churches for burial. @bedesnews @DofEKatrina #lakelandhistory

Another successful Gold DofE trip completed, filled with extra and cross-curricular links. #AcademicPE #STEM #Geography #DofE @bedesnews @StemBedes @dofeuk @BedesHead

Cairns are man made stacks of stone that have been used for thousands of years to mark paths. We love a cairn on the moors when visibility is poor to reassure us we are on the right path.
