In late July, 19 Gordon’s students travelled to Morocco to complete their Gold DofE expedition.  Arriving at Marrakech airport in the early evening the group were pitched straight into the hustle of local life.  An entertaining half hour wait for the bus into town was spent fending off the increasingly strident approaches by the local taxi drivers desperate to convey the group to their hotel.  Suggestions of a 2 hour wait for the bus to be followed by a 90 minute hike from the bus station proved unfounded as the Moroccan public transport system whisked us away to deposit us yards from Hotel Ali.

We have just been sent this photo of our Gold DofE students who have all just completed the 4 day trek and were enjoying dinner at the Asni Community Project.

This year the Technology Department worked with Jo Mitchell from Young Engineers. 

What a superb evening with music, art and drama from the talented students at Gordon’s School.
