During your time at Riverside College you will have the opportunity to take part in a number of different enrichment activities. These will increase the enjoyment of your studies and equip you for further success. There are many to choose from so here’s a little taster of some of them:
Competitions
Talented students have the opportunity to showcase their new skills during the many in-house competitions.
Awards and Celebrations
Each year outstanding students are recognised in the Annual Vocational and Programme Management Award Ceremonies.
Trips and Visits
Each year we offer a large number of trips and visits for all students to take part in. We will resume trips as and when it is safe to do so. Some examples of our trips are:
- Sports trips such as Chill Factore
- Visits to prestigious universities
- Recreation trips such as Alton Towers, Blackpool Pleasure Beach, London and Farmageddon
Study and Social Spaces
The Learning Resource Centre (LRC) and the brand-new Study Cubes provide students with a wide range of the latest computer facilities, online and offline resources and support to help you with your course. Students have the choice of the restaurant, Starbucks and they can also dine in our Scholars Training Restaurant.
Fundraising and Charities
Last year caring students and staff raised thousands for local and international charities, including the annual Race for Life, Children in Need, Ukraine charities and Macmillan Cancer Support.
Sporting Opportunities
Students can take part in sporting enrichment including fitness classes, table tennis, yoga and the cross college 5-a-side football tournament.
