A Two-day adventurous practice DofE Award Expedition

The bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award is a great start for our students on their journey through the Award.

The participants of the programme took part in a two-day adventurous practice DofE Award expedition from 29 to 30 April 2015.

The main aim of the expedition was to explore interesting places like Karlstejn and its surroundings and to overcome the fear of the unknown.

On the 1 day of the expedition the team headed out into their chosen location and put their theory into practice.

This day gave the group a great opportunity to practice various skills, including; navigation; team building and group management.

On the 2 day of the expedition the group went over the skills they had learnt, but it also included one night camp where they learnt everything they need to know to spend a night camping.

Both days were sunny, but the night wasn´t as warm as toast...the temperature dropped at about zero. It was a real challenge. However, we enjoyed our stay and the participants are well-prepared. They won´t be surprised by anything during their expedition in JUNE.

We are looking forward to it!
