Enriched Experiences
Providing enriched experiences for all of the children at Silkmore Primary Academy is at the heart of our curriculum. From the age of 2 until a child leaves at 11, our children are provided with a multitude of enriched opportunities as part of their daily diet.
As enrichment is so important to us at Silkmore Primary Academy, we provide a number of after school clubs each night for an minimal charge for all to attend. These clubs include Science Club, Reading Club, Silkmore Rocks Club, Art Club, Coding Club and plenty of Sports and Musical clubs, to name few.
A child leaves Silkmore Primary Academy with a wide range of enriched opportunities.
Some of these include:
- Watching a show in London
- Paddling in the sea
- Climbing a mountain
- Singing around a campfire
- Skiing and playing in the snow
- The opportunity to visit a foreign country.
Alongside the passport to enriched experiences, we ensure that our children attend a variety of trips. These trips range from visiting Chester Zoo, Residentials to Laches Wood Standon Bowers and France, Blue Planet Aquarium and Jodrell Bank, to name but a few.
We ensure that children leave Silkmore as successful, thriving British Citizens. The British Values are embedded into the curriculum and cultural appreciation and diversity is celebrated across the school. Differing faith representatives visit the school and cultural celebrations are organised across the school calendar year.
