YHA Patterdale | | The venue is in a stunning location which offered us an amazing opportunity to complete Silver Qualifying with a yr 10 group.
Although the routes were restrictive at this level and definitely as much based on appropriate weather all groups were able to see new scenery over new terrain each day, even with using the venue as the only campsite.
The facilities at the Campsite were basic but perfect for DofE and the accommodation for staff was a luxury from normal expeditions. Feedback from pupils:-
Strengths
Self contained, great location, sole use, indoor facilities a huge bonus, drying room, stunning venues as soon as you get out of the tent.
Areas for Improvement:
Campsite to hilly with little flat area, difficult to peg tents due to rocks, no outdoor washing area, little hot water.
All pupils enjoyed the experience and were proud of their achievements.
As staff we all agreed that the Peak District would be a better location for Silver DofE with the location of our School. However as a centre we have already started to look at using Patterdale for our established Gold DofE Programme, so will be looking to come back next year. | 24 June 2024 |
