This morning 10 students from Year 10 headed off for a 1 week adventure in the great outdoors as an introduction to the
Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Programme.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Mission is “To inspire, guide and support young people in their self-development and recognise their achievements” directly in line with the IBSB Mission “Working together to Inspire, Support, and Celebrate student achievement”
Over the course of the week the students will have the opportunity to face personal challenges and develop teamwork and leadership skills whilst completing a number of activities, including a track to the top of Mt Omu and an overnight camp under the stars.
We wish all our students and the two accompanying teachers, Ms Katie Bickell and Award Leader and Assessor Ms Johanna Croci blue skies overhead and many happy memories along the trails they will be walking.
