This opportunity is open to current Year 8 and Year 9 students who are interested in taking part in the programme next academic year.

Event Details:

• Date:            Wednesday 24^th June 2026
• Time:            6:00pm - 7:00pm
• Location:         The Samworth Church Academy

We strongly encourage students to attend alongside their parent/carer, as the session will provide important information about:

• What the DofE programme involves
• The structure of the award and expectations
• Time commitment and activities
• Costs and expedition arrangements
• The significant benefits for personal development, confidence and future opportunities

There will also be an opportunity to ask questions and understand how your child can get the most from this experience.

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is a fantastic opportunity for young people to develop resilience, independence and life skills, and we are excited to be offering this to our students.

We look forward to welcoming you on the evening.
