Duke of Edinburgh's Hillary Award (14-24 years old)

 

TOPEC is a Duke of Edinburgh Hillary Award unit. We provide training and life-changing experiences for all four sections that make up the Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards: skill, sport, community service and adventurous journey. A great way to meet like-minded youth from the region, develop essential life skills and have a great time along the way. Journeys are run during school holiday breaks and weekends. Or, get enough mates together and your school might let you come during the week.

Year 11 to 13 NCEA

Unit Standards (day tramps, navigation, survival, rock climbing, abseiling, high ropes, low ropes, team building, rafting, caving, climbing) and PE Achievement Standard (risk, physical performance, leadership) assessment incorporating outdoor pursuit skill development and risk management. Students become work-ready, more adaptable and confident through learning self-management, personal limits, and communication and cooperation skills.
