Curriculum Enrichment

At Hornsea Community Primary School we believe that all children are entitled to a rich and wide curriculum which will help them to develop and grow to become confident members of the school and the wider community. We encourage children to take an active role in their learning and to follow their interests both in and out of school. Each child can influence their own learning and personalise the curriculum in many areas. Each child is encouraged to be curious and to develop their own interests and hobbies.

Below are just a few of the many enrichment opportunities which are open to all children at Hornsea Community Primary School:

• At least 1 (and sometimes more) school trip per term for each year group, linked closely to topic areas

• Additional trips which are on top of “normal” year group trips e.g. Cinema trip 

• Outdoor learning including "Woodland World" sessions

• Stimulating and thought-provoking assemblies

• Creative arts days where children work in mixed-age groups

• Sports Days and many other sporting events and days through the year

• Themed days e.g. Hello Yellow, Odd Socks Day, charity/fund-raising days e.g. Children in Need

• The opportunity to be a representative on the School Council

• Reading buddy scheme

• Peer mentoring (placement for year 6 children in summer term)

• Looking after younger children in school in a variety of ways e.g. Sports Leaders at lunchtimes

• Music tuition e.g. peripatetic lessons 

• Musical clubs e.g. choir

• School Librarians

• Mental Health Ambassadors 

• Sports coaching and sports clubs – football, hockey, netball, cross country and orienteering competitions

• Sports leader training and opportunities to lead younger children in class and over lunchtimes and at sporting events

• A wide variety of other clubs after school, often formed due to pupil requests e.g. ICT club

• Transition events for children joining EYFS and for children leaving Year 6

• Other links to the local community e.g. Church visits
