Enrichment activities extend children’s learning through new experiences and opportunities that are key to academic success, personal and social development, which will equip them for life. If we are fully committed to preparing our children for future success, we must offer them an enrichment programme that is rich and varied in activities, enabling them to participate in learning experiences that may not always fit into the curriculum. These activities provide learning experiences that develop their character, including resilience, confidence, independence, and encourages them to pursue their aspirations and dreams.
THE BENEFITS OF ENRICHMENT
Enrichment activities are just as important as academics. They complement each other and help develop well-rounded students, teaching them life skills that will prepare them for the future. There are many benefits of enrichment, below are just a few of them:
