Bronze DofE Training Day On Monday the sixty Year 9’s who have signed up to take part in DofE had a training day led by the instructors from BXM Expeditions. During the day they worked with their groups learning about expedition safety and first aid, how to cook using camping equipment (and what they should be cooking), how to use a map for navigating and how to pack their rucksacks. The groups also had to work together to plan their two day assessed expedition which will take place in late June. It was a very successful day with all the instructors being impressed by the many interesting questions the students asked. (Before the Easter holidays Bronze participants will be sent a kit list detailing the equipment that they will need).
