Extra-curricular

We provide a varied programme of extra-curricular activities which all of our pupils have access to. After school provision includes sports clubs, knitting and gardening. On a Monday evening, pupils run and participate in inter-school competitions against neighbouring schools.

We think it’s vital to teach our pupils about the wider community and provide an education that teaches them about the world beyond their own experiences. This helps them develop both an understanding and tolerance of others and skills to grow into responsible citizens who are able to contribute to the wider world. All our classes are named after different countries and the children take great pride in learning about the culture, geography and history of their country. The knowledge is then used in our annual enterprise event where children design and produce a wide variety of products to generate a profit. At the end of the year, classes can spend, save or donate their profits to charity.
