Award Level:
Bronze
Favourite memory of the Award:
My favourite memory was on the adventurous journey when we prepared our breakfast with our group mates. Seeing all of us get together was a wonderful experience and we got to eat lots of delicious food afterwards that we had prepared! In particular, my group had prepared fresh fruits such as sliced oranges, strawberries and grapes which were vibrant on our plates. We also had tuna sandwiches and cereal drinks! I remember another group had made pancakes and another made baked beans! It really was a fun experience getting to know everyone while preparing breakfast.

Biggest challenge from doing the Award:
The biggest challenge I faced was probably doing most of my activities during lockdown, it was hard to meet up with assessors and buy materials needed for my activities. However, it worked out and I tried my best to communicate through the difficulties we face today due to the virus. Staying safe and trying our best!

We visited a waterfall during our hike in the adventurous journey component, near the Ptakele Ganga which was an beautiful sight to the eyes with water gushing through. The smell of the fresh river water was pleasant and definitely a must-see!
