Highcliffe 6 th Form 2004-2006
My memories of Highcliffe 6 th Form include
glorious sunny days out on the field and
participating in the community sports leadership
award which I thoroughly enjoyed.
After the 6th Form I went to Swansea University
to study Geography. During my time
I made many friends, learned long words
(the longest possibly being hydrologicalgeothermodynamics)
and earned myself a
2.1. My favourite courses were Plate Tectonics
and Global Geophysics and Geographies
of Forced Migration and Asylum. I wrote my dissertation on the Practicalities of Small to Medium
Wind Turbines in Public and Private Spaces of Dorset.
In the summer of 2008 I interailed around Europe for a month, and since graduating I raced across the
Atlantic as a Watchleader for charity.
I am currently planning my next big adventure which is to ride a motorbike to Singapore.

Highcliffe 6 th Form –2003-2005
I have great memories of being in the Highcliffe 6th Form.
The things I remember the most are playing for most of the
sports teams in the 6th Form and the Spanish trip to Barcelona.
In October of 2005 I went to study a BSc (Hons) Sports Psychology
and Coaching Sciences degree at Bournemouth University
for 4 years and I graduated in November 2009. My
third year at university involved being on placement and during
this time I worked at the Village Bournemouth Hotel and
Leisure Club as a Leisure Attendant and a Membership Sales
Consultant.
I was later offered a part-time position during my final year of
university and then offered a full-time position once I completed
my degree. I enjoy keeping fit and have been a keen
weightlifter for the last 12 months at the Village where I train
3-4 times a week.
In January 2010 I took a few weeks off and went travelling
around the Caribbean Islands of Barbados, St Lucia, Grenada,
Curacao, Aruba, Tortola, St Maarten, Antigua, St Kitts and St Vincent which all were a fantastic experience. I am
now searching for a more sports psychology specific role.
