Enrichment Beyond the Classroom at Berkley School

At Berkley School, learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. Our enrichment opportunities give children the chance to explore new interests, develop confidence, and broaden their experiences through hands‑on, engaging activities. From outdoor learning and creative arts to community events and curriculum‑enhancing experiences, we aim to nurture curiosity and joy in every child. This page celebrates the many moments in which our pupils learn, grow, and flourish beyond the traditional curriculum.

As this is a newly refreshed website, we are currently building our gallery to showcase the wide range of enrichment our pupils take part in. Take a look at our new gallery to see our recent activities.
