Buckingham Palace G.A.P

Everyone at Queen Mary's High School wishes Katrina, Amelia and Alice a happy, fun filled, special day at the gold award presentation at Buckingham Palace on 17th May 2018.

Well the weather was gorgeous and the setting idyllic. Our QMHS Gold Award students had a fabulous time. The pictures say it all...

What an end to an epic adventure. Well done you should be very proud of your achievements.

Route planning and training finishing touches

Our 73 students doing the Bronze award this year have just over a week to go to their practice expedition. Our computer room was pretty much full today with groups editing their practice routes and making their route cards as detailed as possible.

D - Direction

D - Distance

J - Journey - What are your tick features for each part of your journey? What is/are your catch

The students did really well and some even brushed up on taking a bearing from the map, well done guys. More photos to follow. Below are some photos from the recent campcraft session looking at our Vango Banshee tents.
