Enrichments
2019 / 2020
Welcome to the Horbury Academy Enrichment Programme. This booklet contains information on all the enrichment activities available from Monday 30th September 2019. Each week there are over 25 different enrichments available and you can find constructive and enjoyable activities to take part in every week.
Why attend enrichments?
Enrichment activities allow you to gain experience and skills in areas not typically part of your everyday curriculum. Enhancing your personal attributes by opting to gain new experiences is extremely desirable to future employers and higher education providers. It is also great fun to try something new and different.
Who can attend?
Everyone! There is a huge range of enrichment sessions to choose from. Some activities are specifically targeted at individual year groups and this information is provided in the title of each enrichment. Enrichments that are open to everyone are a great opportunity to make friends in other year groups.
Do I need to sign up in advance?
No. All of our sessions are free and open to all years. Some clubs and activities have a maximum number of places and they will be filled on a first come first served basis. Occasionally enrichment sessions may need to be cancelled, such as when there is bad weather. You will be made aware of this at the very first opportunity so that you can plan your journey home.
When do enrichment activities run?
All of our sessions run either during your lunch break or from 2.45-3.45pm unless otherwise specified in this booklet. This booklet details all of the clubs and activities that start during the week commencing Monday 30th September 2019 and further information is on our Academy website.

Horbury Breakthrough Youth Project is a part of Horbury Churches Together. Our aim is to support and empower all young people in Horbury and surrounding area aged 11-25yrs, with a particular focus on helping those most vulnerable and/or isolated, regardless of background and belief. Through the young people's voluntary participation in a wide range of free weekly clubs, heavily subsidised trips and residential experiences chosen by them, we offer support and advise to young people through the most challenging years of their lives, whilst raising their confidence, aspiration to achieve, gaining new experiences and skills and having fun. We also offer one-to-one mentoring, focused programmes of support and volunteer leadership opportunities for those aged 15yrs+. For more details visit our website: www.breakthru-youth.co.uk
