Sixth Form team building day 2021

Bridgewater School Sixth For team building day

Our Sixth Form is a preparation for A levels, university and life itself – but it is also a wonderful experience in its own right with opportunities to grow and develop alongside like-minded individuals.

The annual team-building day, which this year took place amid 300 acres of woodland at Adventure Now in Manchester, challenges Year 12 and 13 students to an exhilarating day of outdoor adventure and problem-solving, and forms a key part of the induction programme for new A level students.

This opportunity to work together and become part of a team is an integral element for students transitioning into Sixth Form, with activities including rifle shooting, archery, bushcraft and team games, all designed to develop initiative, build a spirit of collaboration and encourage the formation of bonds with peers.

For many new students, being treated as an individual is a new and liberating experience.
