Summer Programme

Hello everyone, welcome to our Summer Programme offering a varied timetable of activities to satisfy lots of different tastes. There is no excuse to be bored over the summer, join us to learn new things, make new friends and most importantly have fun.

Have a look through the brochure and sign up as soon as possible as places fill fast. There is a fee for some of the activities but we have kept these as low as possible.

We welcome all young people to attend the open sessions but where spaces are limited, we will prioritise those who are regular attenders of the Youth Faculty.

See on the next page some of the feedback from last year’s attendees.
