Local Area Visits
Throughout the school year, a number of local trips, assemblies, talks, workshops, and performances are organised to enrich students' educational experience. These activities are designed to complement classroom learning, providing students with practical, real-world experiences and a broader understanding of various subjects.
Local trips are a fantastic way to bring lessons to life. Whether visiting a historical site, a science museum, or a local business, these trips offer students hands-on learning opportunities.
Assemblies are another integral part of the school year. They often feature guest speakers who can offer unique insights and inspire students. These assemblies can cover a wide range of topics, from motivational talks by accomplished professionals to engaging discussions on social issues and community involvement.
Performances, such as school plays and talent shows, provide students with the opportunity to showcase their talents and hard work.
Workshops offer an interactive learning experience, allowing students to engage deeply in a particular subject.
Shown below are examples of local trips, assemblies, workshops and performances in-school and within the local community (walking distances).
