We try to run as many different clubs and activities for your children and these take place at lunchtime or after school.  All the staff work extremely hard and give up their time freely to run these clubs, as they are not paid for doing this.

Usually many children want to come to them - attendance is voluntary.  However if a child does not come his/her place is taken by another, as there is often a waiting list.

Lunchtime Activities - Mrs. Ashton is organising lunchtime activities on the playground 5 times a week with Mrs. Marks & Mrs. Dobson.

This is to encourage children to take part in sporting activities.  We award certificates for skipping, hula-hoops, circuit training etc.  In addition Mrs. Ashton runs sports/games activities at lunchtime for targeted year groups and any child in that year group may join in e.g. netball, volleyball, basketball etc.  We are encouraging all the children to take part in these activities so that they can practice new or existing sports skills as well as burn off a lot of energy. 

The School Council - Two members from each class meet with a member of staff to discuss items that either a class may have raised or members of the council wish to discuss.  They are also responsible for some of the ways that the school raises money for charity e.g. the Blue Peter Appeals or the school's adoption of a child from the Third World.  This is organised by Mrs. Ripley and meets on Friday in school time.

Easter School - Mrs. Roe and Miss Dudman organise and run an Easter School for Year 6 during the Easter holidays.  This is to further support revision for the SATs.
