Our sessions
Every week, sessions have fun activities, including four sessions per term that are influenced what the girls say is most important to them.
We do loads of different things at our sessions, but here are some examples of the fun activities and special sessions we did last school year:
- What we have done in the last school year;
- Went to see ‘Fantastically Great Women Who Changed The World – The Musical’ with girls from GFS Anfield
- Created the tallest towers in our team challenges
- Went to a pottery painting session and decorated our own pieces
- Learned about key events such as Windrush Day
- Created our wall of change, outlining what we would like to achieve in the future.
- Decorated and filled our ‘Hopes and Dreams’ boxes
The games, crafts and activities at GFS Aigburth are fun and age appropriate ways to teach girls about themselves and others too.
- Team challenges teach us to work together
- Learning about incredible women who can inspire us
- Trips that help us learn independence
- Just having loads of laughs and fun without any worries
