This evening we celebrated the success of our Duke of Edinburgh's Bronze and Silver Award Participants.
For Voluntary Service, participants have supported the Katherine Girl Guides Recycling Drop Off by cleaning and sorting out lids, engraving new signs, sorting out more lids, painting recycling drums and sorting out even more lids. They participated in Plogging to support Clean Up Australia. They developed an assortment of Skills to do with gardening, including weeding, composting, planting their own vegetables, painting tiles to make the School Garden more visually appealing and tried their hands at hydroponics. Physical Recreation goals focused on developing fitness, teamwork and mentoring Middle Years Students. Participants played a range of sports including AFL, volleyball, basketball and netball. Their Adventurous Journey was a jam-packed exploration into Biodiversity in the NT. Although it was postponed twice participants persevered while battling the heat and Mozzies and successfully completed this component. They cleaned up the Casuarina Coastal Reserve, hiked around many national parks including Howard Springs and Charles Darwin, made water filters, got lost in the Monsoon Forest, created artwork from natural materials and explored Territory Wildlife Park.
As a part of the Adventurous Journey Participants completed the Youth and United Nations Global Alliance Biodiversity Challenge. The majority of the recipients are currently completing their Bronze and Silver Awards.
"Congratulations to you all. Your hard work has paid off and I am proud to have shared this journey with you." - Miss Ashmore
