Enrichment
Inspiring Learning Beyond the Curriculum!
Passport for Learning
At Redbrook Hayes, we firmly believe that children learn best from first hand experiences. These are the experiences that stay with us for a lifetime and bring to life learning for all our children. To support this, we have a Redbrook Hayes Passport for Learning.
The Passport for Learning provides opportunity for children to take part in a whole host of extra curricular activities that are offered to them during their time at Redbrook. These activities are assigned to achievement badges on ePraise, our reward point system, and children have the opportunity to collect all of these throughout their time with us. Please click here to find more information about the Passport for Learning and what children need to do to collect their badges.
Forest School
Mrs McCandless is our Forest School Leader. This year, we will be offering Forest School sessions to Y6 and Y5. Please click here for more information.
Curriculum Visits and Workshops
As part of our curriculum offer, learners are invited to take part in a variety of on-site and off-site visits and experiences, linked to their learning adventures. These experiences bring learning to life for our pupils and enable a deeper understanding of our history, culture and science throughout their whole-school learning journey.
Regular experiences include some of the below but we are always reviewing these to ensure they best fit with the learning and needs of our children :
- Reception visit to Ash End Farm
- Early Years Beach Day & Penguin Day (ages 2-5)
- Reception Balanceability
- Year 1 visit to Sudbury Toy Museum
- Year 2 visit to the Ancient High House
- Year 3 Egyptians Workshop & visit to The Thinktank
- Year 4 visit to RAF Cosford
- Year 4 Residential
- Year 5 visit to The Black Country Museum
- Year 6 Bikeability course
- Year 6 Wilderness Residential
- Year 6 Anglo Saxons Workshop
- Young Voices for KS2
- Derby Faith Trail (every two years)
Residential Visits
Our Y6 pupils attend the Wilderness Experience Residential in Stone. This 2 night, 3 day residential is packed with fun and adventurous activities, giving them the opportunity to develop their teamwork and resilience. Learners set up camp themselves, working as a team to put up their tents, support each other in adventurous activities and really get stuck in.
New to 2025, we are excited to be taking our Year 4 children to Standon Bowers. This is a 2 night, 3 day residential where children will stay in dorms and take part in a whole host of fun, teambuilding activities.
