Active School Coordinators have been working closely with the school to put on after school clubs that the pupils would like to attend. There were five different clubs offered in term one which led to 33% of the school roll taking part in a sporting extra-curricular club. This is a fantastic jump from the 18% of the school roll that took part in term one in 2017.
Again this term there will be a range of clubs on offer which started last week. These include multi-sports, dance and football. There are still spaces available in all clubs so if you would like a space speak to your teacher.
If there are any clubs you would be interested in seeing running please get in touch and Active Schools will try to help.
