On Friday 4th November, we enjoyed our second enrichment day of the year.
Year 10 worked for the day with a company called ‘Enable’ focusing upon workplace skills.
Students worked in teams but with people who they generally did not work with. They completed a number of activities that required team work, problem solving and intensive communication skills. They had to fulfill specific business roles. Some took the role of managing director, whilst others were in charge of merchandise, or the finances and even promotions. Teams presented their work and prizes were awarded for the different roles and the best team overall.

Some students were making clay poppies for a special arts installation that will feature soon within the school as a permanent ‘Remembrance’ tribute. Others were enjoying art workshops as a carousel of dance, drama, art and music.
The third of five whole school enrichment days took place on Thursday 6th February. The days are designed to enrich the curriculum for students with more in depth looks at subject...
