School Clubs & Activities
We involve as many children as possible in our range of extended school activities and everyone is encouraged to take part in school clubs, both sporting and non-sporting, which are organised before and after school and at lunchtime.
Recent activities include chess, football, running, yoga and street dance. Please note that there is a modest charge for some of these activities and that some are run by outside providers and some by the school.
From September 2024, we are delighted to be able to offer after school wraparound care provided by CASCADE KIDS. Children will be able to attend either from the end of school or after one of our after-school clubs. Snacks and light tea will be provided, followed by a range of activities.
Our After School Clubs are one of a kind. Children can help themselves to a snack as soon as they arrive before exploring a range of activities and games or settling down to get some homework done. We have teatime at 4:15, followed by an optional activity hour led by one of our excellent activity leaders. Activities change weekly and include options such as zorbs, tag games, bouncy castles, mini archery, football, nerf, VR headsets and many more. Children always have the option to participate in other activities too! They can play in the Construction Zone, get creative in the Creative Zone, do some more activities in the Active Zone or get cozy in the Chill Out Zone and read books, draw or do some homework. Â

Instrument lessons (for which a charge is made) can be arranged via Herts Music Service or providers that we have existing arrangements. We offer lessons with a variety of instruments; see the table below for more details.

All other clubs please contact external provider direct, links can be found on school newsletters.
