APRÈS-LEARN
ENTERTAINMENT:-
For
those over 18 years, a special attraction is The Point, a
futuristic pyramid-shaped entertainment complex containing a
nightclub, discotheque, bingo hall, amusement arcade and a 10
screen cinema The
Leisure Plaza" contains an international size ice-rink with
seating for 2,500 spectators, a 36 lane ten-pin bowling centre, as
well as a bar and a restaurant complex.
Milton Keynes itself has a variety of modern bars in the
city centre and traditional English inns in the countryside. Once
a week we organise a coach and visit a couple of the nicer
historic Country Inn tours with the over 18s.
For
those under 18 years, there are a wide range of activities such as
ten-pin bowling, roller disco, ice-skating, the ten-screen cinema
at "The Point", sports centres and swimming pools. Our
monitors are naturally on hand to chaperon and assist. Once a week
we organize a "no alcohol" disco to which the children
of the host families are invited as well as local youth groups to
allow our participants to make friends with the locals.
When we go on
excursions the participants are collected by our coaches from
directly outside the centre. On days which have not been
designated for excursions the participants can either take part in
the many activities which we plan or spend the time relaxing with
the family or discovering the delights of the town centre with
friends Our experience has shown how quickly friends are made
locally so friends are always invited to our extra curricular
activities such as sports with something for everyone be it
soccer, cricket, volleyball, badminton, tennis, riding, golf or a
host of other sports .
