STUDENTS from Chester’s Queen’s School have been presented with their Duke of Edinburgh awards at Chester Cathedral.

Bronze awards were presented to 25 students with a further 10 achieving their silver awards.

Duke of Edinburgh co-ordinator Chris Moore said: “The girls here are always so busy but they still find time to do that much more to achieve their awards.

Jennifer Robinson, who received her bronze award and is working toward her silver, said: “I would recommend the Duke of Edinburgh Award to anyone. It’s such an achievement when you finish the expedition and when you complete each level.”
