Opening the door to opportunity

Here at Bridgewater School we believe that education is not just about opening minds but opening the door to exceptional extra-curricular and enrichment opportunities. An eclectic array of sporting, cultural and bonding trips enable students to discover more about the world around them and become the the true individuals that they are.

One such experience is the school ski trip which this year saw a group of Senior and Sixth Form students travel to the US East Coast resort of Cannon Mountain and Waterville Valley within the spectacular White Mountain National Forest. This 5-day trip, which included a brief stop in Boston in addition to the slope-side programme of activities, offered a unique opportunity for development and discovery. The acquisition of new physical skills and knowledge alongside the enhancement of their own personal development proved key in delivering a real sense of achievement for all involved.

Education is not just about opening minds but opening the door to exceptional extra curricular opportunities.
