HEEELP 5 Complete the diary entry with the words below. activities expedition plan skill time voluntary My best friend and I have decided to do the Bronze level Duke of Edinburgh Award. I’m so excited! I need to write my 1 and start thinking about the 2 I’m going to do. I’d really like to spend 3 helping the environment or doing 4 work with animals at the wildlife centre. I’ve already chosen my new 5 : I’m going to learn to play the saxophone. But the thing I’m really looking forward to is going on the 6 . I want to go hiking in Scotland. It’s going to be great!
