After School Clubs

Internal After-school clubs for Summer 2024

(Please note that clubs marked with * indicate a paid external club)

We are pleased to be able to offer a selection of extracurricular clubs for the children in the summer term. Please carefully read the information below and see the lists at the end.

Important (some pleas from us!)

*Please ensure that your child wants to go to a particular club before you sign up. In the past, some children have been added to a club who clearly do not want to be there, or for childcare reasons. This is unfair on the child, and also for other children who are on the waiting list.

* Please do not sign up for more than one club on the same day.

If you can’t attend a club one day

Please let the office know if this is the case, as this is a potential safeguarding issue if an expected child does not turn up. We will then not need to phone parents after school saying that their child has not turned up to a club and adds unnecessary workload to our office staff.

Timings

School-run clubs will begin in week 2, unless otherwise stated. Starting dates for privately run clubs may have different start times, so please check. All clubs finish at 4:15pm unless communicated otherwise.

How will I know if my child has secured a place?

As the demand for our clubs is so big, there is a possibility that some may become over-subscribed, particularly as many clubs will have a number cap to make it manageable and safe. In this event, after the deadline has passed, we will draw names out of a hat to decide who will get the places, or set up a rota for particular classes. We will send letters out to children if they have secured a place in the club. A waiting list will be set up for children who haven’t secured a place. If you are still unsure, please contact the office for confirmation.

Cancelling a club

Many clubs are run by school staff on a voluntary basis and there may need to be occasions whereby a club has to be cancelled in a particular week. We will try to give as much notice as possible, but it is possible that a club may have to be cancelled at the last minute, due to sickness or bad weather. Texts are sent no later than 2pm to inform you of this.

External Clubs – Please note all correspondence for the clubs below are not operated through the school, but directly to the club themselves.
