GLOUCESTERSHIRE College has committed to a new approach for activities, clubs, societies, sports and trips. 

Ready for the new academic year starting in September, the college designed a new programme for students to read through, which has plenty of extra curricular activities on offer. 

Gloucestershire College calls it “the Enrichment Programme”. They said: “Enrichment is our term for a huge range of clubs, activities and trips that we offer across our campuses.  

“Essentially, it encompasses all the fun, social things you can look forward to alongside your college course. If you’d like to introduce something new, we can support you in establishing your own society too. 

It’s a great chance for you to discover new hobbies and test your skills. You can make new lifelong friends, and most importantly, have fun!”

The college offers sports clubs like multisports, badminton, basketball, karate and football. Clubs and societies from Film Club to Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) are also up for grabs.

Additional skills, awards and training are also included to gain extra skills for CVs. Students could learn to code, get qualified as a lifeguard, or get introductions to cookery or beauty skills. Trips such as to the cinema, theme parks, galleries and sports sessions are also on offer.

A spokesperson for the college added: “Students can stay up-to-date with GC updates over on our TikTok page: https://www.tiktok.com/@gloscol which features one of our Student Development staff talking about Enrichment at college.

“We are also still taking applications for the Forest of Dean campus for this September. We have an Exam Results Advice Day at the campus on Friday (August 23), 10am-2pm, for anyone who has get their GCSE results and wants help with their options.

“Many of our students go on to study cyber security, arts courses, etc. at university and our college is a great place for ambitious students who know what area they want to work in.”
