Activities and Excursions
We aim to localise our leisure programme as much as possible to give students the chance to explore the culture and history on their doorstep.
Our EXPLORER programmes are an excellent way of seeing more of the UK, but still keeping things local.
Your first week is spent at our London Brentford centre, which is only 25 from Waterlooand the exciting South Bank area. You will have several half-days to explore this andother parts of the city. Your programme includes a visit to the Tower of London and an afternoon in Kew Gardens.
On day 8, you transfer up to Keele University by private coach.
Once in Keele, the half-day trips include the Roman city of Chester, and at theweekend, there are full-day excursions to Manchester, with a look round Trafford Park, the home of Manchester United, and a trip to Liverpool, home of the Beatles!
In the evenings, there’s the opportunity to participate in talent shows, find new friends in speed dating, play bingo, test your knowledge in the weekly quiz and show off your dance moves at the disco.
Caring and Attentive Teachers and Staff
Our summer team have been selected for their experience in and suitability for working with young people.
Anglo centre mangers are responsible for ensuring the smooth-running of the programme and most have had many years of experience on summer courses.
Quite a few of our teaching staff have worked with us for several summers as well, and have been involved in developing the syllabus by contributing ideas they have tried and tested at centre.
We are also proud that many of our activity team are returners and that some move into management positions, using their experience to make the programme better and safer each year.
