Congratulations to Franc D’Couto for his resilient efforts in completing his Silver Award.

He has worked continuously, putting in his best efforts throughout the four sections. During his explorations around Mt Buller and Mt Stirling at the beginning of the year, Franc helped his group navigate around the trails which was an experience to remember. Franc has also continued to gain and extend qualities to complete the physical recreation and personal skills part of the Award. The fourth part of the Award, which has been a testament to Franc’s motivation and support, is the service section. Despite lockdowns and restrictions over the two years he has been working on this, he has continued to coach and help so many youngsters through judo. Fantastic effort Franc and we extend our continued best wishes as you start your Gold - yet another demanding challenge.

Great Job!
