Amy set off from **Bamburgh Castle at 9:00am** and walked continuously through the night, finally reaching **Tynemouth Castle at 5:00am** the following morning. Her journey spanned an impressive **18 hours**, showcasing exceptional resilience, determination, and commitment. This epic sponsored walk helped raise vital funds towards the life‑changing educational experience in Peru, where students take part in cultural exchange, community projects, and personal development opportunities. Amy’s dedication to supporting her own learning journey — and pushing herself far beyond her comfort zone — is truly inspiring. We are extremely proud of Amy’s perseverance and the incredible effort she put into completing such a demanding challenge. Her achievement reflects the strength, ambition, and spirit of our Sixth Form community. **Well done, Amy — an outstanding example of what determination can achieve.** [ An Inspiring Visit from Georgetown University](https://carmel6.org.uk/news/2025-10-14-an-inspiring-visit-from-georgetown-university) [Celebrating Sophie, Young Citizen of the Year ](https://carmel6.org.uk/news/2025-11-12-celebrating-sophie-young-citizen-of-the-year) ![Carmel VI Form](https://files.schudio.com/carmel-vi-form-2/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_(2)_(1).png) ### Carmel VI Form The Headlands Darlington County Durham DL3 8RW 01325 254525 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/carmelcollege6/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/carmelviform/) ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Carmel VI Form School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://carmel6.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
