   |  |    The more opportunities you have to use your English, 
        the faster
 it will improve. That is why we offer an unparalleled variety of activities, 
        directed by our full-time team of qualified specialists.
 
  We organise a 
        number of social events for you, such as a welcome party and a guided 
        tour of Oxford when you arrive. You can also participate in a wide range 
        of sports, as well as adventurous outdoor activities, creative arts and 
        service activities. Some options are linked to your studies and may include 
        visits to theatres, concerts, lectures or galleries. During the academic 
        year we sometimes visit places of interest in the UK and abroad. In recent 
        years, we've been to Barcelona, Prague, Scotland, Wales, Peru and Egypt. 
  A full programme 
        is always on offer; you simply sign up for the activities that interest 
        you. Many options are included in your course fees. Excursions, music 
        lessons and some sports incur an extra charge. 
  
  We offer football, 
        tennis, basketball, swimming, squash, table tennis, golf, badminton, volleyball, 
        hill walking, camping, rock climbing, photography, art, music lessons, 
        dance, Latin funk and capoeira - and more! 
 
  Whatever your 
        interests and talents, you'll have the chance to develop new skills and 
        make new friends.
