The Gold Award is an prestigious international award that recognises commitment to 12 months of service, physical activity and skills learning. The students had previously achieved their Bronze and Silver awards. All three students also completed the Kepler Track as their adventurous journey. As part of their residential project Sofia completed a 10 day Spirit of Adventure voyage. Isla attended the Future Leaders Academy in the Cook Islands and James participated in Scouting NZ Ventures Ignite Expedition. Alongside his DOE award James also received the KIng Scout Award which is the highest Scouting award and recognises his commitment to the values of the organisation. 

Well done to these students for striving to achieve GOLD.
