Summer Enrichment Week 2018 “Providing a foundation for life”
Summer Enrichment Week 9 - 13 July 2018 Here at Beccles Free School, we believe in ‘providing a foundation for life’. Our aim is to provide an all-round education which inspires our students to develop a love of learning for life. We believe that as well as learning through a broad and balanced, traditional curriculum, our students should be exposed to all kinds of learning and experiences through our exciting enrichment curriculum. Our enrichment curriculum takes place as part of our school week (on Wednesday afternoons) and at the end of each term. At the end of the Michaelmas and Lent Terms, ‘Enrichment Days’ engage our students in activities that are fun, memorable and exciting ends to an intense period of learning. At the end of the Trinity Term, our Summer Enrichment Week takes place. This full week provides the opportunity for long term engagement for our students in something that is of interest to them or to immerse themselves in something new! This brochure outlines the Summer Enrichment Week choices for students for 2018. Each student should make three choices in order of preference on the online form on ParentMail (1 = first choice, 2 = second choice, 3 = third choice). Please make sure the activity choice form is completed by Monday 19 February 2018. It should be noted by parents / carers that the prices quoted for each activity are already subsidised and therefore any applications made for subsidies will be assessed with that in mind. We hope you will agree there is a huge range of choice for students in this brochure. Whatever is opted for, we are sure that students will have a fantastic, stimulating and inspirational week to round off an exceptional year of learning. 2 Programme of events
