Extra Curricular Activities

Clubs and Activities

There are a wide range of clubs and other activities open to the children during the course of each school year, including some on Saturday mornings. Some of these, particularly the sports activities , are of a seasonal nature whilst others, particularly musical groups, continue throughout the year.

Swimming

Apart from swimming lessons in school time, parents can enrol their children for swimming tuition from specialist instructors. These lessons, on Saturday mornings and Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday after school are extremely popular, with around 200 pupils currently taking advantage of this facility and there is usually a short waitlist. A mother and toddler class is also available on Tuesday lunchtimes. Click here for further information or see the PTA button on the menubar.

Pupils in years 3 - 6 have the opportunity to take part in our waterpolo league which takes place in the autumn and Spring terms. Enrolment takes place at the beginning of each term with everyone welcome !

In addition to lessons, the following times are available for community swimming. Times are subject to change at short notice due to additional school requirements.

Visits and Residentials

We are keen to offer a wide range of residential visits for older pupils, not just to support curricular work in school but also to help develop independence, character and personality.

Children from Reception through to Year 6 have the opportunity to go on visits to enhance their learning in the curriculum.  Examples of visits include various theatres, Tamworth Castle, Coventry Transport Museum, St. Johns Museum and Shugborough Hall.
