Programme: Forces
Anglesey
A unique course of Arts activities about forces, allowing your students to develop an understanding of balanced and unbalanced forces and their effects.
Combining the topic of Forces with The Arts, your students will take part in activities that will support personal development for years to come. Based at The Conway Centres, Anglesey, this weekend includes a visit to the Anglesey Transport Museum, alongside outdoor activities such as climbing and zip wire which builds confidence and self-esteem whilst inadvertently improving their skills.
Our aim is to foster a sense of achievement where as well as learning about Forces we inspire individuals, empower minds, and define futures through The Arts and develop young people to achieve their potential, introducing them to potential lifelong interest in Art, Drama and Music.
