Page 3 - Floreat - Academic Enrichment Lent 2021

The school’s motto is:
“ Altiora Peto” (Aim for higher things)
Although another school closure brings challenges, it also provides unexpected opportunities as well!
It would be wonderful if the boys could take advantage of this time to explore new areas of interest and excitement.
This booklet thus includes a number of ways in which the boys (and sometimes parents) can make the most of time at home during lockdown.
These include:
On-line festivals
MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses)
Essay Competitions (mostly, but not exclusively, for the older boys)
And my favourite: advice from teachers on their favourite books, films and series! Some of the recommendations are for older boys so you may want to keep some of the suggestions for later years.
They range from enjoyment and escapism to study and reflection.
From WC Fields and Saving Private Ryan, to Anna Karenina and Sapiens.
Do browse through it and I do hope you find something which may inspire you.
It may even be that it takes you on a journey which might not otherwise have happened...
