Dear Parents/Carers
Curriculum Enrichment 2017
I am delighted to let you know that we will be having two curriculum collapse days here at WCSA on Monday 17 and Tuesday
18 July. During this time, Year 7 – 9 students will have the opportunity to engage in a number of different activities. Personally, I have always enjoyed these days; students tend to excel in
their chosen activity and make us proud as a school.
We have aimed to put on a variety of different activity choices –
some are free, whereas others will attract a cost. Please be
aware that costed activities may not run if there is not enough
student uptake.
All activity choices will be confirmed at the beginning of May.
Payments will be required for all activities with associated costs
by the start of June using the schools online payment system
(Parent Pay).
If you do have any questions about these two days, please do
contact me here at WCSA. I have taken a good look at the program and there is plenty of choice. We hope that students will
make the most of this opportunity and have a fantastic time.
Yours faithfully
J Scott
Head of School .

REAL GAME
All Year 8 students will come off normal timetable and take part in
Curriculum linked fun activities on Monday 17th July.
This exciting curriculum enrichment day aims to show students how
schoolwork relates to occupational choices and therefore to lifestyle
and income. Students will take part in real game and citizenship
activities which will raise their aspirations and allow them to explore
the skills and attributes needed for a range of career pathways.
On Day 2 of the Enrichment Days (Tuesday 18th July) students will
have the opportunity to choose from a selection of onsite and offsite
activities, some of which have a cost. Please see the next page for
details.
Please note all activities on both days take place in the normal school
day unless otherwise specified.
