Golden Day for Esmee!

Many congratulations to both Esmee and Masha for completing their Gold Duke of Edinburgh Awards!! Given that these are huge undertakings and require enormous commitment of time and energy, and can be completed over a number of years up to the age of 22, both girls have done amazingly well to have achieved these awards in their final year at school.  Masha is still waiting for a date for the presentation of her award, but Esmee was particularly lucky to be invited to a presentation ceremony this week, and at Buckingham Palace!!
