Wider curriculum
Every week our children engage with our 'wider' curriculum which provides them with enrichment opportunities. We teach swimming in every year group, have an engaging DT curriculum including cookery and sewing, and an extensive play provision. To contribute to the cost of the wider curriculum we ask parents to pay a voluntary contribution of£45 across the year, which can be paid in instalments via our online payment system.
To support these additional activities, we may sometimes require extra adult support. These afternoons are great fun and are a wonderful opportunity to see our children engaging in different types of learning. Please get in touch with the office if you would like to volunteer.
Sport and Physical Fitness
The school has a good reputation for the range of physical activities offered and for its success in local sports. We are proud of our covered swimming pool which enables us to include swimming lessons throughout the year as part of our Physical Education Curriculum. Children receive lessons from a qualified instructor. The school takes part in many inter-school activities and has achieved success at both school and district level. We employ a Sports Coach to encourage the children to increase their participation in sport.
Extracurricular activities
The School offers a range of extracurricular activities to extend learning, some of which are
offered free of charge. Parents are notified of our clubs at the start of term and book them online. Parents should note that extra-curricular clubs should not be used as childcare but are provided for the enrichment and enjoyment of your child. Children using our after-school care can still access our extracurricular clubs - they simply return to the after-school care classroom when the school club has finished.
