Clubs are a great way for children to develop an interest, socialise with a different circle of children and have fun! Our clubs are free because we want all our children to have the opportunity to join in.
We are constantly delighted that our staff give their time to share their passions & skills through leading clubs at lunch time and after school. It is a great time for children and staff to learn, have fun and socialise together in a more relaxed way.
There is usually a range of sport and non-sport clubs available. In the past clubs have included: football, street dance, tag rugby, county dancing, multi-sports, cricket, gymnastics, bench ball, dodge ball, running, potted sports, recorders, nature, art, knitting, puzzles, board games, lego, Maths 24 and Mathletics. We plan for our professional sports coaches lead clubs in their area of expertise too.
Practicalities
To join a club you just need to return the club letter to school with your request. When children join a club we expect them to attend every week for that term – this is to be fair to the teacher planning a progression of skill/project development and to other children who might want to join the club if there were spaces.
Occasionally a club is oversubscribed. In this situation staff will prioritise those whose forms were returned to the school first. Occasionally names will be pulled from a hat if returns were made on the same day or staff will split the children into 2 groups so everyone can get involved in the club for a shorter time. In either case you/your child will be informed.
Occasionally clubs need to be cancelled if a staff member is ill/on training . We will give you 24 hours notice of a club being cancelled or more if possible.
In the event of bad weather an alternative activity will be offered for the children on site if the club cannot run as usual.
After school clubs finish at 4pm (unless another time is stated on the club letter). Please pick up children at the main black, metal gate entrance (unless stated on the another location is stated on the club letter).
