Kic.in2.Study

Year 6

Year 6 Kic.in2.study students attended the Cobblers Study Centre over the Spring term, with two outside visits to the Saints Study Centre to take part in a Circus Skills workshop and a Shakespeare/drama workshop.

At the Cobblers they enjoyed a wide range of teambuilding games, produced some impressive creative writing in the form of “fruit poems”, took on the player maths challenge and became very adept at using digital cameras and using the photographs to create a slideshow with photos, text, fancy transitions and music. They used Powerpoint, Publisher and Photostory and took on the X box challenge - but didn’t quite beat Jean!

Evaluations from the students were very positive - everyone gave the programme full marks. Words used to describe their time on Kic.in2.study included fun, useful, interesting, excellent, super, and cool. Most people couldn’t identify a favourite activity as they had enjoyed everything. Two people thought the computer work was best, especially Photostory.

Year 9

Year 9 students attended Kic.in2.study at Diamonds Study Centre during the Spring term. Presentations from Aim Higher encouraged the young people to begin thinking about the future and to explore the various routes available to them. They experienced a range of Playing for Success activities including a stadium tour, player interview, dream team activity, premiership club map challenge and Robolab workshop as well as the water bottle challenge and the paper tower challenge. Robolab was the most popular activity and food and transport also got high marks!
