Horizons students spent the evening at Hollywood Bowl, lots of fun had and very competitive.
These sessions help students to find what is available for them to access in their own time, building independence and developing social skills.

Over the last few weeks Horizons students have been planning a set of career focused lessons so they could teach groups from Schools.

Students today have been taking part in teamwork activities, they were asked to think of conflicts when working together and what actions could take place to resolve.
These were split into positive and negative actions, some great debates between each team π£π£π£ @PrincesTrust
