Our Transition Activity Camps at Sandymoor Ormiston Academy have been developed to support children in their final months of year six.
Gaining an insight to the school and experiencing typical student activities enables children to make a seamless transition to secondary school.
Our four-day Transition Activities are now available to book, operating over two weeks in the summer holiday period.
Children will explore the school setting, take part in multiple sports, engage in leadership activities and hear from past and current students regarding key transition milestones.
Racket sports, basketball, football, archery, handball, dodgeball, gymnastics, and boxing are some of the sports they will explore, as they make the next step in their education journey.
We have 10 funded spaces for those in receipt of benefits related free school meals, please use code KRM781 when booking.
Please note eligibility will be checked.
If you are in receipt of benefit related free school meals, you have children who are looked after or children who have additional needs, you are eligible for a funded space when they are available.
Children will engage with others that will be attending the school, they will also build relationships whilst on camp and also act as a mentor and coach to our younger children. These are all skills that support children in secondary school. They will meet older students and find out what life is like on site.
Yes, we offer private spaces on all of our camps, if there are no spaces listed please get in touch and we will endeavour to ensure spaces are available.
Lunch is provided for our funded spaces only. Children that are accessing non funded spaces are expected to bring their own lunch and drink.
Children will participate in various types of physical activity, including coaching, learning, mentoring and leadership type activities.
They will be supported at all times by our staff .
