Duke of Edinburgh

[Abi]

Has anyone finished the DoE award, or is doing it at the moment?

I'm doing the bronze expedition in a few weekends with a few mates, so it should be funny.

[di marco]

me and my mates were going to do it a few years ago but we didnt bother doing it in the end, i only know about 5 people in my year that did it, and about 2 people did the silver award the year after

[Abi]

I dont know if i can be bothered to do the Silver, but i thought the Bronze wouldn't exactly hurt me that much. I'm not exactly a good walker, andi get really faint if i walk for a long time, so i hope that this kind of stops that.... hmmm

I've done my bronze, silver and gold and now i'm working on my platinum!!!

[di marco]

didnt know there was a platinum one

[Summer]

Yeah there is a platinum one, my sisters doing it! So are like 10 other folk in my school

[di marco]

is your sis quite old then cos i thought you had to be a certian age to do each one?

[Summer]

shes 18, i dont think you do have 2 b a certain age

[Abi]

It takes a year to do each one, and the youngest you can start is 14, so i guess you can work it out from there how old you have to be

Bronze:14
Silver:15
Gold:16
Platinum:17
