Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award - Expedition Section
Your Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award expedition will be planned in school with your teachers. You will learn how to use a map and compass as well as a variety of skills that will help you navigate your way around the route.
The route itself will be pre-planned and you will use route cards that you prepare in school (along with your map and compass) to find your way.
Your overnight stay will be under canvas and you will learn how to pitch and strike a tent. In addition to this you will learn how to cook using a camping stove. There are no open fires used on DofE!
