Enrichment Week Year 8 Activities

Please see the Enrichment Week timetable of activities for Year 8 for EW2022 which is 11th-15th July.

Next steps:

  • Investigate the fabulous activities by reading the descriptions, staffing and costs in the area below the table
  • Sign up opens on Monday 16th May
  • Sign up closes at 1700 on Monday 23rd May
  • Choose 3 activities per day
  • By selecting 3 activities you are more likely to get an activity you want to participate in. This is because CHQ runs a ‘random by preference’ allocation process. If you only select 1 activity and you do not get it for that day you will be auto-allocated to an activity that has spare places. Choose 3 per day to minimise the risk of this happening. Please rank them 1 to 3 in the circles provided.
  • Please note that if you are on a Residential trip you cannot select another activity for that day. All Residential trips are closed for sign-up.
    Pupil Premium – If you are eligible for Pupil Premium please contact Mr Dave Rutt to request funding support, if available d.rutt@hayesfield.com
