Extracurricular Activities
Junior girls can choose from a wide range of extra-curricular activities to take part in. These take place at lunchtime and after-school, finishing in time for girls to get buses.
Clubs include Art club, choir, Drama, Library club, mindfulness, yoga, Eco club, as well as many sports activities such as gym, netball, hockey, lacrosse, tennis and football. Private music lessons are also available at extra change in addition to LAMDA lessons. Girls learning an instrument are encouraged to join Junior Orchestra to further develop their skills.
Senior girls help with many of these activities and the Junior girls benefit enormously from the friendship and understanding that flourishes across the whole school.
High priority is also given to ensure that the girls have time just to play outside with their friends during breaks and to make full use of the Junior Playground.
Trips and Visits
Trips and visits bring the curriculum to life. They have included trips to animal sanctuaries, historic houses and even a local superstore. As the girls progress through the school, residentials, including outdoor pursuits, provide opportunity for further study, personal development and lots of fun.
