BIG Adventure Weekend, 4th –
6th July 2014
Once again, we’re looking forward to
joining families for the BIG Adventure
Weekend at PGL in Liddington, near
Swindon for a weekend of outdoor
activities for children and parents,
discussion and other groups indoors for
parents and ‘chilling out ‘ sessions in
the evening. Whether you have never
been before or if you are a regular to
the BIG Adventure Weekend, you would
be most welcome. Early bird booking
for members closes on 3rd April; after
that the price goes up a little and we
will keep booking open for as long as
PGL has space for additional families.

Challenge, Warwick University
10th – 16th August 2014
In August we are running a week long
Summer School loosely based on a
science challenge to enhance your
child’s creativity, encourage them to
work in teams and learn some high
level science along the way. This event
is open to our 12-16 year olds who will
be based at Warwick University for
the week without parents. So if you
are looking for activities for your child
over summer and want a provider who
you know will stretch and challenge
them pay your deposit to secure a
place. If your child is entitled to free
school meals, could their school help to
support their attendance at this week
through the school’s Pupil Premium
allocation? It may be worth asking.
Webinars
We have now finished our webinar
pilot for parents and we are pleased
to say that it was a great success. We
are planning some more after Easter
and these will be free for members
of Potential Plus UK. We are also
exploring inviting guest presenters to
run webinars as well but we will let you
know about those at a later date. If you
are interested, we have recorded all
three webinars so that you can listen to
them at your leisure! They are on the
members’ area.
