A group of Key Stage 4 and Sixth Form leavers recently took part in an exciting and rewarding Activity Week at the QE2 Activity Centre in Southampton, held across Tuesday 16, Wednesday 17 and Thursday 18 June.
The trip saw 10 Sixth Form leavers and 1 KS4 leaver participate in a wide range of outdoor and team-building activities designed to challenge, inspire, and develop confidence. Activities included archery, rifle shooting, bushcraft, team-building challenges, orienteering, and an exhilarating zip wire experience.
Throughout the week, students approached each activity with enthusiasm and determination, with many stepping outside their comfort zones and overcoming personal fears. Their positive attitude and willingness to engage fully in every challenge highlighted their resilience and teamwork.
Staff accompanying the group praised the students for their efforts, noting the strong sense of achievement and camaraderie developed over the course of the programme.
“We had an amazing time as always with our students. They showed fantastic enthusiasm and courage throughout the week. While we are all exhausted, we are incredibly happy and proud of what they have achieved,” said a member of staff.
The Activity Week provided a memorable send-off for leavers, offering opportunities to build lasting memories, strengthen friendships and develop life skills in a supportive and adventurous environment.
