Enrichment
Wednesday Afternoon & Other Enrichment Activities
All post-16 students need to do some extra activities to ‘enrich’ their learning. This is carried out by sixth formers throughout the country and as well as helping to make you into more rounded personalities it provides additional material for your personal statement or CV.
At St Wilfrid’s we offer the following enrichment opportunities.
Wednesday Afternoons
All sixth formers are made ’free’ on Wednesday afternoons to give them opportunities for enrichment. Students will have to sign up for one session each term. It is anticipated that many of the following activities will be on offer for 2008-2009.
