澳洲了解duke of edinburgh的朋友

在澳大利亚中学教育



有什么经验、教训、体会，请传授传授。孩子要出去camping三次，说和以前学校的camping完全不一样。没大人supervise。还真有点不放心。打算和她谈谈注意事项什么的。

帮顶，也想知道详情，几年级开始？

听说是艰苦的野外生存训练。达到最高级别对高考有什么好处的吧。具体我也不清楚。

朋友的孩子参加过了，每次累得半死摔得青一块紫一块回来。

我们家孩子九年级，但据说八年级就可以开始，只要学校有家长愿意做coordinator.

老板的孩子参加过，只拿了铜牌就收手了，认为对高考没啥帮助，只是让孩子出去锻炼锻炼。我觉得让孩子吃点苦蛮好的，但安全一定要有保障。

In 1956, the Duke founded the Duke of Edinburgh's Award with Kurt Hahn, in order to give young people "a sense of responsibility to themselves and their communities"

HistoryThe Award program was first introduced in the United Kingdom in 1956 as The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. The aim was to motivate boys aged between 15 and 18 to become involved in a balanced program of voluntary self-development activities to take them through the potentially difficult period between adolescence and adulthood.

The program was designed with great care by a small team, led by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh; Dr Kurt Hahn, German educationalist and founder of Outward Bound and the United World Colleges; and Sir John (later Lord) Hunt, the leader of the first team to conquer Mount Everest.

Within the first year of its establishment the lower age limit was reduced to 14, where it has stayed ever since. A girls’ scheme was launched in 1958, and the two separate schemes were amalgamated in 1969. In 1957 the upper age limit was increased to 19, increased again in 1965 to 20, increased to 21 in 1969, and finally increased to 25 in 1980.

The unique flexibility of The Award made it ideally suited to easy adaptation and integration into different cultures and societies and it was soon adopted by schools and youth organisations in other countries.

Since 1956, the program has developed and grown and now reaches young people in over 120 countries.



Internationally, The Award operates under the same principles but under a number of different titles; for example, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award; The International Award for Young People; The President’s Award; The National Youth Achievement Award. More specific national titles are also used, for example Prémio Infante D. Henrique in Portugal and Avartti in Finland. A current list can be found online at www.intaward.org.

Today the basic principles of The Award remain the same, but the activities and delivery continue to evolve and adapt to suit the changing demands of modern society and the varying needs of young people. The Award is now a major international program recognised and used by organisations working with young people throughout the world.

Duke of  Edinburgh’s Award (爱丁堡奖励计划）这个program 已听闻多时，共分了3个level，分別是 Gold, Silver & Bronze.
今年孩子参加了Bronze level，在上星期的周末去了2日1夜的 Camping，一年共2次这样的训练，对她来说可以说是艰苦的经历，事前在学校开了2个meeting讲解细节，准备的工具及各样物品，自备或租赁帐篷和背包(size 65L) , 睡袋地垫，自备足够食水及5餐粮食，还要准备小铲子作大解时掘地用，班同学听后人人大笑，哈哈！
单是要把这些东西收进入背包已经够烦恼，因为限重是<11公斤。

评论
Camping当天, 9:00am 前需要自己前往集合地点 Richmond.
在各家长离去后又一次 meeting 及检查背包 check 重量，过重者要拿出多余的物件，导师讲解路线后便出发
(之前已分了12人为1组, 共6组，每3组为1小队，每小队不同地点出发）

在行山的过程中每50分钟路可小休5分钟饮水，其余时间不可停步，从早上10时多走到下午4点30分才到達目的地，
途中还经过树林草丛，大斜坡上，大斜坡落，爬石山......，到营地时比预计时间慢了，停下后立即要设置帐篷，
因天已黑，各人头上也带上电筒，开始生火煮食，每4人合用1个小煮食炉，单是烧水也很慢。
餐后还要做一些 paper work 和 plan 定明天的路线行程。
在晚上的气温接近 0度的情况下，也没有好好的睡眠，
第2天 6:00点起床后便收拾好一切（包括垃圾），返回之前的集合地.

评论
直到下午一时许，各家长也到达集合地接回孩子，
她们都是肋疲力尽的样子，面上，颈上布满老泥，十指（指甲）镶满黑边，
手背也擦伤，头发散乱，脚步不稳（回家才发现起了数个水泡）。
孩子在回家途中不断讲述旅途发生的事物，很多第一次接触的事物和新奇事，
学懂在困难中解决事情，要有团队和合作精神。

评论
她说今次体验虽然很辛苦，但还会期待下次的旅程.

谢谢分享

安全方面会有问题吗？

评论
俺两个孩子都参加过。

评论


其实都是安全的, 只是姑娘们平时都是骄生惯养, 高床软枕, 出入有车子代步,
现在一下子背着11kg 背包, 不停赶路, 沿途只有自备的食水使用, 水变得珍贵,
没多余的水洗手抹脸.

像这样的训练, 就是要她吃吃苦才学懂珍惜, 时刻保持危机意识和懂得如何解决问题.
本星期六就是第2次的Camping, 女儿说有了上一次的经验, 今次会变得聪明了,
我就等待她回来的经验, 是否真的变聪明了..........haha......
