Would you believe that Sutherland House School was invited by the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) to join their 70th anniversary event in Buckingham Palace Garden!? 🫢
It was a day to celebrate all our young people who’ve shown commitment, resilience and belief in themselves to achieve their DoE award.
Speakers included Tasha Ghouri, Ash Dykes, Angela Hartnett OBE, Ella-Mae Rayner, Ed Jackson and Matt Green.
It was an honour to be invited and to share our experiences of how DofE offers our young people the chance to build skills and confidence that will serve them into their adult years.
