Enrichment Week

Enrichment Week

Held every year in June, Enrichment Week gives all students in Years 7 – 9 the opportunity to take part in a residential trip or school based activities (known as Base Backwell) for the week. The organisation of this week involving over 750 students is a mammoth task, and we are pleased to say that our  Enrichment Week 2009 which ran from Monday 8 June to Friday 12 June was a huge success.
