One of my proudest accomplishments STILL, some 30 odd years
later, is achieving the “full set” of "Duke of Edinburgh Awards”. I remember the effort that I put into the
expeditions, the over-riding aspects of “service” and the long term commitment
to a variety of disparate “activities” including of all things, flower
arranging and canoe building. It was tough!
So, a generation later, it’s hugely
gratifying to now be able to celebrate Nerea’s successful achievement of the awards too.
But notwithstanding Nerea's personal determination, many thanks are due to all those
at Friars who've helped her reach this satisfying goal.

2 generations of D of E awards! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sarah. We're looking forward to going to Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh for the presentation next year
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Nerea (and you!). In March this year I went to St James Palace to watch my daughter collect her Gold award - a proud moment!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your daughter too. It's an achievement for any one as it does require commitment for a considerable period of time!
