Enrichment
We offer a skills based enriched curriculum, which has a broad impact on children’s learning, their wider personal development and well being. We believe that in order for a child to become successful in their future learning and life it is important to actively teach life skills.
Every enrichment creates an opportunity for your child to learn a range of life skills.
Experiences and opportunities are provided outside the regular curriculum which broaden children’s horizons and introduce new possibilities.
There may be a chance to attend trips, work with specialised professionals and use materials beyond the normal range of resources.
Our Enrichment program runs twice a year for six weeks on a Friday afternoon. Children are asked to select their top three choices and they are allocated an appropriate enrichment.
For further details or if you wish to help by contributing time or resources, please contact Mrs A Nicholson.
