Duke of Edinburgh Award - After some challenging weather conditions on their recent practice expedition, the Silver team not only showed they had the skillset to take on any challenge they might come up against but also the grit and determination needed to never give up and get the job done.

On Friday 15th March, GCSE Agriculture and OS Horticulture visited CAFRE Campus at Greenmount. We saw methods of propagation, the vast area of horticultural glasshouses including hydroponics. Everyone enjoyed the Land based engineering department, especially the heavy machinery. Then all of us were converted into “Smurfs” for a trip around the dairy farm centre! After plenty of walking a good lunch was required. Thank you to Toni and her staff for their hospitality at #discoverCAFRE.
