“The DofE Gold Award is a truly life-changing experience and the pupils attending the Buckingham Palace Garden Party are a great example of what can be achieved through perseverance, dedication and a willingness to step outside their comfort zones. We are extremely proud of their commitment to the programme and the positive impact they’ve made in their communities.”
DofE is a globally recognised programme that encourages young people to achieve personal development through outdoor adventure, volunteering, physical activities, and skill-building challenges. This event is a highlight of the DofE Gold Award journey, recognising the dedication, resilience and determination displayed by each pupil. Attending such a prestigious occasion is not only a testament to their personal achievements but also reflects the supportive environment at Kimbolton School, where pupils are encouraged to push boundaries and pursue excellence.
