Enrichment

"the action of improving or enhancing the quality or value of something or someone."

 

Every Friday afternoon all children have the opportunity to develop new skills and experiences through our Enrichment Programme that broadens and strengthens our school curriculum.

 

Not only does such an opportunity bring about excellent learning opportunities that can be applied within the school curriculum but develops our young people with regards to confidence, self-esteem and resourcefulness that are essential skills to be the leaders in the 21st Century.
