Themes of The Workshop
Routine
We delve into the exciting routines of ‘big school’ and why they matter.

We place special emphasis on ‘the superpower of sleep,’ ‘owning the morning,’ and ‘fuelling our brains and bodies in the correct manner.
Responsibility
Your pupils will learn the value of responsibility through practical exercises that focus on managing workloads, navigating different subjects, and prioritising tasks. We incorporate interactive quizzes to bring a sense of competition and excitement to the learning process.
Relationships
Making new friends can often be the primary concern for First Year students. We emphasise how this is one of the most exciting aspects of ‘big school.’ We delve into the ‘how’ of making friends in new settings, engaging students in interactive activities. Through games like ‘mind melt,’ we showcase the power of finding common interests. Lastly, we draw parallels between a new class and a sports team, exploring real-life scenarios to highlight qualities that students can bring to their new team.
