Go Beyond Your Studies with Enrichment
At Fareham, we understand your time at College is not just about your core study programme. Your time at College should be an opportunity to explore and develop your interests, socialise, make friends and have fun!
Our enrichment programme is a fantastic way to meet new people from other areas of the College and to try a new activity that you might not have done before. Enrichment activities, other interests and hobbies are great to include on your CV or UCAS application as it demonstrates your commitment and enthusiasm outside of your core studies.
All of our Enrichment activities are available at a range of levels so you can learn a brand new skill, or improve on existing talents. Enrichment generally takes place on a Wednesday afternoon and activities available may include the following:
