Extra Curricular Clubs

There is an evident need for our pupils to engage in meaningful activities beyond the school day. In response, our Extra Curricular Activities Programme provides pupils with opportunities to use lunchtimes, and Clubs that try wherever possible to dovetail the end of the school day to focus on hobbies. It is hoped this will be both enriching for the children attending them, and convenient to parents too. Clubs are booked in termly blocks. It is possible to join mid-term, availability depending.
