This is a carousel based programme consisting of six units:
Food & Health
Equality & Diversity
Foundations of Philosophical Thought
Dance
Relationships
These units complement the academic curriculum as well as a host of PSHE aspects. Each unit is four weeks in duration and is tutor group based. There are some external sorties, such as a visit to Winchester Cathedral and a local Mosque. We also team up with our Digital Leaders (fellow peers) who lead an Internet Safety Programme with various workshops to inform pupils of good practice online.
Throughout the Academic Year we also expose pupils to cultural delights such as Shakespeare with the talented troop from, 'The Young Shakespeare Company,' who run a workshop and performance, for example, Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliette or Macbeth. This past Academic Year we have be fortunate to have a virtual visit from Maz Evans, author of the series, 'Who Let The Gods Out?' This consisted of a reading by Maz Evans, a question and answer session and advice about writing. Matt Dickinson also hosted a fascinating virtual session based upon his 'Everest Trilogy,' engaging pupils in the history, geography, adventures, perils, achievements and experiences of his Mount Everest climbs. Sonia Leong presented a superb workshop looking at the stylistic traits of Manga art and her illustrations of Shakespeare texts through the Manga medium. We host an Inter Form Athletics Meet held at the local Southampton Athletics Track, co-ordinated in association with the P.E. Department to facilitate an inclusive, friendly and competitive sporting occasion.
If you have any queries about these arrangements, please do not hesitate to contact the Extended Studies Co-ordinator, Mrs N Moxon.
