Welcome to our ‘Amazing Things’ section of the web site.  Here we celebrate the achievements of our young people outwith the classroom.

Range of achievement

Young people get formal qualifications at school. However learning also takes place outside the classroom, at home and in the wider community.  Achievement covers learning in other areas of the life of the school, and in the variety of activities young people are involved in, for example:

• hobbies and interests, such as participating in a sport or club
  
• youth work
  
• volunteering
  
• caring for a relative
  
• activities they undertake in the life of the school, such as Eco Schools or Buddying
  
• recognised awards or programmes, such as the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

Through these activities, young people develop important skills for learning, skills for life and skills for work that can be of real value to them as they grow up.

Pupils at St. Benedict's have the opportunity to log their wider achievements here on the web site - each entry earns a number of points.  Just log in to the web site and click the 'Amazing Things' button.
