The D of E is a popular activity at Tettenhall
College and is enjoyed by both girls and boys.
The award runs at three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold.
We encourage candidates to begin with Bronze at age 14, and
continue to Silver (minimum age 15) and then Gold (minimum
age 16).
First and foremost, this is a fun activity!
It is not, however, to be taken lightly. Like other activities,
it requires regular attendance and a good deal of dedication.
Uniquely, though, it demands that something extra!
An ability to work in a team, a willingness to learn new
skills and a stubborn refusal to give in when the going gets
tough are all-essential. Optional extras include the ability
to remain cheerful when lost, cold and/or hungry and an unreasonable
desire to keep singing in the rain!
