The Duke of Edinburgh Award creates opportunities for our young people to learn new skills and activities, and encourage them to be active in their community.

This award is recognised around the world and is a superb framework for our students to develop their Riccarton Way values of Excellence, Commitment and Respect.

Congratulations to the following students for achieving their Duke of Edinburgh Awards through Riccarton High School. 

These students have contributed to their community through an extended period of service and have pushed themselves in planning and undertaking multiple overnight tramps. 

They have learnt valuable life skills through tramping as well as forming friendships with teenagers from other Christchurch schools. 

If you are keen to be involved email Mrs Mapp mp@riccarton.school.nz (Year 10 and above only)
