Freshers' Week
The whole Lower Sixth have their own dedicated Freshers' week. Before you attend a single lesson you will be taken off to the Peak District for three days of fun and team building. You will build rafts, traverse gorges, navigate underground caves, and help each other abseil down cliffs.Your first week in Lower Sixth will be packed with activities to enable you to settle in quickly and make friends, as well as develop new skills.
New Students, New Friends
Freshers’ Week ensures that by the end of just seven days everyone has bonded as a year group, as well as begun a development journey as you start to test your leadership and teamwork skills. Even if you have never done this before, we can assure you that you will have a great time, learn new skills and, as importantly, make new friends too.
"After Freshers' Week, it felt like we had known each other for years"
Emily, new to Culford Sixth Form
Typically Culford's Lower Sixth will be joined by up to 30 new students in September; so if you are new to Culford, you will definitely not be the only one. More than two-thirds of Sixth Formers are boarders and benefit from an exciting mix of weekend activities and the chance to have tutors and teachers on hand to help with school work and exam preparation.
