Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
We strive to enable and encourage all students to enrich their educational experience during their time at Carterton Community College, to bolster their academic studies but also to develop their cultural capital, broaden their horizons and gain new skills and experiences that will benefit them in the short, medium and long term.

Duke of Edinburgh Award & Outdoor Education
We start our program of outdoor education with the year 8 Bushcraft week, and build on this by offering our students the chance to participate in all levels of the globally-recognised Duke of Edinburgh Award.
Residential Experiences
A particular strength of ours is the extensive residential program that we offer, making strenuous efforts to enable students from all backgrounds to access them.
Subject Specific Enrichment
Each faculty and course runs their own subject-specific educational visits, either on or off-site, and the changing nature of exam board specifications and other factors means that these are not always the same year on year
