Enrichment/Personal Development
At St Matthias Academy we encourage students to develop interests in a range of non-academic activities and skills. Trying something new can be a challenge for many of our students, but it is a great way to develop confidence and build relationships outside of friendship groups.
WOW Enrichment sessions take place two afternoons per week and students can choose from a variety of options that they would like to participate in for a term. They then have the opportunity to develop their interests further in the following term or can choose a new option.
Options offered change frequently but have included:
- Boxing
- Baking
- Music production
- Arts & Crafts
- Ju-jitsu
Numbers per group are limited depending on the activity offered. First choice goes to the students with the highest attendance.
