Enrichment Week

A key part of our Enrichment Programme is our annual Enrichment Week, which takes place towards the end of every academic year. Enrichment Week consists of a variety of trips and activities either in-school or off-site. All students within Years 7-10 and Year 12 are given the chance to take part in a residential trip during this week or participate in a combination of day trips and activities organised in school. Our in-school activities programme gives a broad range of choices and options for students who opt not to be on a trip for that day ensuring that all students have the opportunity to maximise the benefits of the week.

In previous years, we have added the following international and residential trips:

• Berlin and Auschwitz for Year 10 and 12 students
• Barcelona Sports Tour for Year 8 and 9 students
• South of France Language trip for Year 10 students
• Rockley Watersports activities week for Years 9, 10 and 12 students
• Adur Activity Centre for Year 7 and 8 students

Those students who choose not to participate in a residential activity, have the option to take part in activities on the school site and in the village as well as day trips, including:

• Theatre in London
• Natural History Museum, London
• Harry Potter Studios
• Howletts Zoo
• Rye Watersports
• Bedgebury Mountain Biking and Go Ape
• Chatham Snow Sports
• Climbing Experience, Maidstone
• Dover Castle
• Canterbury Beanie and Roman museums
• Wildwood
• Science Observatory, Herstmonceux
• CEMA (Centre for Experimental Archaeological Military History)

Education with character is fundamental to how Wye School and United Learning work, growing the whole child so that they are a rounded person. This section explains how we operate Careers, Combined Cadet Force, Duke of Edinburgh Award, our Enrichment Week and Co-Curricular Clubs
