G29 – Duke of Edinburgh return on Saturday 5th July

As G29 get ready to head off on their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Expedition later this week, we’d like to share some important information about their return on Saturday 5th July.

The coach will leave Acomb at 3:00pm, and we expect students to arrive back at school by approximately 3:45pm.

Once back, students will need time to unpack their bags and air out their tents and sleeping bags to prevent damp and mildew.

We will also need to account for all school equipment, including rucksacks, trangias and tents.

This process is likely to take until around 4:30pm-5:00pm, we will update via the school website as the process nears completion.

A full “de-gunge” will take place on Monday morning when students return to school.

Thank you for your continued support in helping G29 prepare for their expedition!
