Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
All students take part in key stage assembly and in-class mindfulness sessions on alternate weeks. Assemblies focus on: the value of the half term and special days/events. Mindfulness sessions focus on: self-regulation, being calm, increasing tolerance, resilience and a good sense of well-being. Providing regular opportunities for students to learn outside of the classroom is a key part of our curriculum and our PSHE/Citizenship subject area. Individual classes access learning in the community on weekly educational visits and special enrichment and celebration events are an important element of each student’s school experience.
