Duke of Edinburgh

By Maple

For this past year, the Year 10 students have been working on their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh award From hiking to cooking, they all participated in a wide range of activities With two practice trips to Khao Ito at Prachinburi, everyone learned how to pitch tents, cook their own meals, and navigate through the forest with only a map, compass, and Garmin for two days straight. They all managed to make their way to each waypoint on the map through dense forest, a great variety of plants, animals, and some rivers.

Besides the adventurous journey, they are also required to complete a skill, a sport, and volunteer service (Two for three months and one for six ) During the Lent Term, they spent the weekly Thursday enrichment session volunteering to help teachers in Junior with different tasks such as reading to the Year 6 students, helping teachers organize and decorate the classroom, and many other This term, they had the option of learning a skill (cooking, sewing, or photography), it has been a great experience and learning opportunity for us all.
