Enrichment
We aim to give each pupil a well-rounded education, teaching pupils for life, not just to pass exams.
This encourages an inclination to branch out, keeping all possibilities open for a future full of potential.
A well-rounded education is not a luxury for today’s pupils, it is a necessity if we are to prepare them for the realities of an ever-changing world.
Almost all careers as well as global citizenship require an interdisciplinary understanding and out-of-the-box thinking, which can best be cultivated through a well-rounded education.
Our Summer Term Enrichment Programme for Years 6 - 9 is available to view below.
Along with your child, please could you choose the preferred activities on the website form.

(This will be determined from the online submission form below).
Model UN
Model United Nations is for those people who love to debate, work together as a team and enjoy exploring how politics works on a global scale. It is an excellent opportunity to work with pupils from other year groups and improve skills such as public speaking, the ability to work towards compromise and compose logical and well-researched arguments.
STEM Club
Could you survive a zombie apocalypse? Would you have the technical skills to make pressure plates, communicate without making a sound or to cook food without fire? If you would like to learn some of these skills, then STEM could be for you.
Brass Club
Are you the next Louis Armstrong or Timmy Trumpet? In this Brass enrichment you will learn how to play popular tunes, read music and learn how to play a Cornet or a Trumpet as an ensemble with your friends. You will start your brass journey with Mr Sweeney.
Spray Painting
In spray painting we will be layering using a wide variety of materials and acrylic paint to create unique patterns. We will be using a variety of colours and demonstrating an understanding of shape and abstract work within art. All pupils will create a piece of artwork which will form a group mural at the end of the year and will be put up on display showcasing their skills and teamwork.
Ukulele
In the Ukulele enrichment, we will learn chords and riffs to some of the best modern pop songs. Pupils will be given the opportunity to suggest songs they would like to learn whilst improving their practical skills on the Ukulele. In addition to this Ukulele is a great introduction to stringed instruments such as the guitar.
The Crew - Creative Writing
This Enrichment session offers a great opportunity to develop ones creative writing, creating their own short stories in our brand new Library. The Library offers a quiet work space for any keen reader or writer to go on an literary adventure.
Girls Football
Girls Football is delivered as a fun and competitive activity. The focus is on enjoyment and applying current knowledge and skills to game tactics. In each session, pupils will undertake a variety of drills/practice situations that will develop their ability to work as a team and then have opportunities to put their newfound tactical knowledge into game situations.
