The Boyle provides opportunities to complete all levels of the Adventurous Journey Award,

as well as the Gold Residential Award.

Adventurous Journey

You will need a sense of adventure and discovery as you go on a team journey in our big Kiwi backyard.

​

Enroling in the Duke of Edinburgh programme is an opportunity to learn more about the wider environment, as well as learn teamwork skills, make real decisions and accept real consequences, and gain self-confidence.

 

You'll probably end up outside your comfort zone at times, but you'll be kept safe with training and supervision. The result will be experiences you'll remember forever— you won't regret a minute of it!

​

We run all levels of Journey - Bronze, Silver, and Gold!​

​

We offer places for Practice and Qualifying Journeys at the same time, but participants must be at the same level.

​

Check out our upcoming programmes to see what we have scheduled.​

Gold Residential

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award Gold residential project requires you to engage peers and undertake a shared project away from home over a period of at least five days.

 

Per DOE Gold residential criteria, there can be a maximum of one other person you know on the course.

 

The Boyle Potential Leaders course is a great way to complete this whilst also learning new skills and having heaps of fun.
 

All you need to do is enrol on a course, bring your record book and meet the criteria during camp.
