Wednesday afternoon enrichment
Academic students at Kings Bournemouth now have extracurricular or ‘enrichment’ activities for a couple of hours on Wednesday afternoons. Currently, they are able to choose from a number of different options, which include Gardening Club, Drama and Book Club, Running Club, Photography Club, Debate Club, Mindfulness and IELTS/ Conversation Club.
Whilst many enrichment options give students the chance to pursue interests within a specific subject or hobby, or even develop new ones, they are also great for developing softer, more transferable skills. These can include skills such as public speaking, working in a team and even time management skills.
