DofE Gold canoeing trip to Wales
Published: Thu 30 April 2026Recently, year 12 students went on their DofE Gold practice expedition in Wales. Students did two days of canoeing on the River Wye and camped at two different campsites along the way. This was an amazing experience for students as it was the first time that most students had canoed as well as it being an experience to test their endurance and resilience.
‘Canoeing through Wales was one of my highlights this year! The scenery on the river was beautiful. Working with my partner to canoe felt like a proper team effort and was very rewarding at the end.’ – Mina
