During August we offer our Summer School to Year 6 students who are due to start Belvidere in September. Fun-filled activities include team building games (building and launching rockets and getting extremely wet in the process!), having fun in Science labs, Treasure Hunts and map skills, arts and crafts, archaeological digs, making things in our woodwork workshop, and much more!

As well as the huge emphasis on having fun through learning, we also focus on making sure students feel happy and settled about the move to secondary school. Many of our activities encourage the students to get to know each other, the school building and our staff. This goes a long way to ease any concerns they may have and most importantly, it means they walk through the gates for the first time in September having made new friends and being more familiar with the school environment.

Our Summer School is free of charge to any student who is due to start at Belvidere. Students are welcome to attend the whole Summer School programme, just one day or anything in between!

We are planning to run a Summer school programme in August 2022 and look forward to welcoming all of our September 2022 Year 7 students.
