Curriculum Enrichment Week

Curriculum Enrichment Week is a highlight of the school year, offering students a unique opportunity to take ownership of their learning, embrace new challenges, and strengthen connections with both peers and staff. Through a diverse range of activities, students can expand their horizons beyond the classroom while celebrating their achievements throughout the year.

Our carefully planned programme is designed to enhance communication skills, foster a strong sense of community, develop essential life skills, and encourage enterprise and creativity. In previous years, activities have included first aid training, drama and dance workshops, radio reporting, "Stranded!" (a leadership challenge from the British Army), as well as Lego and photo challenges, and so much more!

Check out our school calendar to see when our next Curriculum Enrichment Week will take place (generally the last full week of school in Term 6), with students in Years 7, 8, and 9 participating in a variety of enriching experiences, while Year 10 students will take on the exciting challenge of work experience, gaining valuable insights into the world of work.
