All groups are now finished! Well done to the students, they worked really well all weekend and dealt with the weather in such a positive way! Hopefully the summer expedition is much warmer!
Making great time today - the 1st group have come through Walkern already.
After a good days walking all students did really well and have cooked and put tents up. It is quite cold and windy but they have been in really good spirits all day!
All groups have left and started their walk to Little Wymondley. Fingers crossed the rain holds off!
And then there was movement!
Hopefully the students got some sleep! There’s not many early risers today! Pretty cold and very windy in the night!

Well down to all students on the Bronze expedition, dealing with the heat and hills really well!! As always, thanks to the staff for coming over the weekend, DofE at Freman would not be as successful without the extra support.
