Four intrepid IB Students, Annabel Bates, Chloe Ducrey, Sophie-Dorothe Lieke and Dominic Sheehan undertook their Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Assessed Expedition and conquered Snowdonia. Having completed their examinations the group finished on a high, literally, when they used the Snowdonia National Park and surrounding area to accomplish this prestigious award. Assessor Patrick Moran described the group as “An excellent all round team!”
The expedition began in Llanrug and travelled south east between Snowdon and her sister peaks before turning northward to finally finish in Trefriw. The four days saw the team traverse some pretty tough terrain but they were rewarded with the spectacular scenery!Morale was exceptionally high throughout and the group said it was a fantastic way to celebrate after their exams!
