Clubs

HOORAY! CLUBS HAVE NOW STARTED FOR THE SUMMER TERM! 

We have eleven exciting clubs on offer this term, from the usual summer sports clubs, drumming and choir to the return of debating club and brand new pottery, gardening and even a pond-dipping club!

A HUGE thank you to all of our club leaders for giving up their time to deliver such a fantastic range of varied after school activities. 

A handy table displaying all clubs on offer this term as well as when they start and whether they are ON or OFF that week, can be viewed below. Please note that, apart from the breakfast and tea club wraparound care we provide before and after school hours, we do not run clubs for Reception-aged children.

"The take-up of extra-curricular clubs is extensive, including for pupils with SEND and for those who are disadvantaged. Over the course of a year, practically all pupils attend at least one club with many attending several. Staff go above and beyond to offer these clubs, and pupils and their parents thoroughly appreciate this." - OFSTED, September 2024

WEEK BEGINNING 12.05.25 (FIRST WEEK OF SUMMER TERM CLUBS)

Below is a reminder of our after school club rules which we kindly ask all parents, carers and pupils to follow in order to ensure the smooth running of clubs and safety of children: 

⇒ Children are not permitted to drop out from a club for the rest of the term unless the school receives a legitimate reason in writing from parents, such as an injury which prevents the child from doing a physical activity for a prolonged period of time;

⇒ Children must go to the club they originally signed up for, and are not permitted to change their minds and attend a different club during that term;

⇒ Parents MUST inform the school office if their child is going to miss a club that week for a valid reason such as illness or a doctors/dentist appointment;

⇒ If a parent is persistently late in collecting a child from an after school club (all clubs finish promptly at 4:00pm unless otherwise stated in the above table), the child will unfortunately have to leave the club. Our staff remain very busy after school attending meetings, preparing lessons and marking work ready for the next day, and do not have time to supervise children after closing time;

⇒ A child who exhibits consistently poor behaviour will be asked to leave the club;

⇒ Key Stage 2 children will only be allowed to walk home alone after a club has taken place if a parent or carer has previously completed a walking home form (available from either Mrs. Bentley or Mrs. Bolton in the school office);

⇒ Children who are attending our wraparound care after school on the day of their club should join the wraparound care group once their club session has finished at 4:00pm, unless a parent or carer has notified the school office that the child will be collected from school at 4:00pm. After school wraparound care leaders are Mrs. Smith (Mondays to Fridays), Mr. Duffett (Mondays and Tuesdays), and Mr. Ponter (Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays).

⇒ Children will need PE kit if they are attending a sports club that day. Children already in PE kit from PE lessons earlier in the day can simply stay in their kit; trainers should be in school at all times for the daily mile run.
