Extra-Curricular Activities
Extra-Curricular activities are of vital importance to the school for several reasons. They are an essential part of the individual's personal and educational development. Although the school serves a distinct catchment area, it aims at broadening the horizons of the pupils with visits to the theatre, cinemas, areas of special interest, Urdd activities and concerts on special occasions. When an outside visit is arranged then the school asks the parents to make a voluntary contribution towards the cost. We also encourage children who participate in activities at local clubs to inform us of certificates and achievements they have been awarded. Presentations are made in school assemblies and children are complimented on achievements at clubs and societies during their leisure time. The school has strong sporting and cultural traditions.
