EXtra activities all year long

We offer a variety of clubs and societies coordinated by staff and students, covering sports and creative hobbies, to digital skills and feel-good inspired activities. The College also works with many fantastic external agencies, including Learn2Live (the road safety education specialists) and the charity Jay's Aim (who deliver CPR training), to bring students essential coaching and training. There are also lots of pop-up activities led by our friendly EXtra Team (from arts and crafts for wellbeing, to full-on celebration events to mark the end of term or a national day of awareness, and much more!).
