The weather was very much on our side and with an 8am start at the foot of Cuilcagh, the brave group of walkers, led by event organisers Sinead Johnston and Robin Ferguson, navigated their way across the hills of Fermanagh in their PINK vests visible from afar. For many, this was a real challenge, a challenge which moved us out of our comfort zone, but one that we were determined to complete to honour our colleague and friend. The route was approximately 25 km long and involved climbing between nine hundred and one thousand metres (broken into four stages). The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme was very close to Amanda’s heart and we believe that this challenge, which involved climbing to the top of the four Peaks which give their name to our four School Houses: Cuilcagh, Trien, Benaughlin and Belmore, is a fitting tribute to honour Amanda’s memory. To mark the one year anniversary of Amanda’s death on the 12th May 2021, on Saturday 7 th May 2022, a 70 strong group of ERGS staff together with members of Amanda’s family and friends and a group of senior Duke of Edinburgh Award pupils embarked on the ‘Four Peaks Challenge’.
