25 Apr Duke of Edinburgh: Gold Practice Expedition
Congratulations to sixth form students who took part in the Gold practice expedition on the Mourne Mountains during April 2016. The group spent a weekend in the mountains camping and cooking for themselves.
ย
During the weekend the group climbed over Hare’s Gap, and over Lough Shannagh. The group practiced their map work skills, compass skills, and bonded as a team ahead of their exam expedition in June.

Unfortunately the weather was not kind with the group braving snow, fog, rain and on the final day a small amount of sunshine! Well done to you all for your hard work!
