Best super-curricular projects for Computer Science?

Hi, I am going into Year 12, studying Maths, Further Maths, Comp Sci, Physics (one of the last 2 as an AS). Can anyone give good ideas for projects/any supercurriculars for Computer Science as I aspire to study this at Oxbridge or Imperial?

Thanks

In terms of projects you could make a game or a program which solves a very niche problem. For example a while ago I made a program to rename photos en masse because I'm a photographer. I also want to make a program which finds the shortest path in a supermarket with specified items to buy.
If you can't think of anything, you could solve problems on leetcode. They're a very good way to practice coding skills which is very necessary in computer science
