Lots of opportunities to learn new skills and make new friends
It's said that ‘a busy child is a happy child'. So it is our belief that there should be plenty of opportunities for your child to take part in as many activities as possible.
Our extra-curricular activities programme provides children with a wealth of opportunities to pursue their interests or try something new. We aim to help children increase their confidence and self-belief, while cultivating new abilities which may develop into lifelong skills and interests and which encourage them to take on new challenges.
Clubs and activities will take place mainly after school but there will be some pre- school and lunchtime rehearsals and practices. The majority of clubs are free of charge but some do incur an extra charge.
Below is the list of clubs and activities that will be taking place in the Michaelmas term.

During the first week of term there will be no after-school commitments. The second week of term will provide an opportunity for ‘taster sessions' at any club or activity. After these sessions your child will be able to decide which they would like to join and on Monday 19th September the clubs and activities programme will start for a ten-week period.
When choosing activities do bear in mind that starting a new school year can be exhausting and the younger children may like to limit their choices.
