Dancing and Diving into a New Year of Activities

Our Year 5 and 6 pupils got stuck into a new term of activities, which are a vital component of our ‘beyond the classroom’ approach to education.

Aligned with our academic curriculum, our extensive programme of clubs and activities enables our pupils to explore their passions and discover new skills and experiences.

At Prep, clubs and activities run during lunchtimes and as a part of our before and after-school activities programme. With a wide-range of clubs on offer in the Prep and Pre-Prep, the vast majority of these are included within our current fee structure.

We also create opportunities during the school day for our older pupils to go ‘off-timetable’ via afternoon activities held on Monday (for our Year 3 & 4s) and Thursday afternoons (for our Year 5 & 6s).

This term, our Year 3 and 4 pupils will rotate around activities that include cookery, bushcraft, cycling, chess and dance. Our Year 5 and 6 pupils will take on cookery, first aid, swimming, orienteering, dance and hockey, to name but a few.

Whilst lots of fun, these activities also form a vital component of our ‘beyond the classroom’ approach to education, empowering our pupils to develop new skills and build their confidence, curiosity, communication and teamwork.
