2022_2023_Extra_Curricular_Activities

Dear Parent/Carer,

Please find attached Grange Academy extra-curricular programme for session 2022/2023.  Grange Academy staff have volunteered a significant amount of their time putting on an extensive range of clubs and activities for our pupils.  We believe there are significant benefits to attending extra-curricular activities; some of which are highlighted below;

– they increase physical and mental health and wellbeing for pupils.
– they increase the opportunities to develop friendships.
– they can create lifelong memories for our pupils.
– they increase pupils connectedness and ownership of the school.
– extra-curricular activities indirectly improve attainment for learners.
– they improve peer/peer and pupil/staff relationships.

Please discuss the attached with your young person and encourage them to get involved!  All clubs start on Monday!

Mr Robertson
