Enrichment Activities

Staff Led Clubs

Reception children can develop their skills in one of the two clubs available to them: Bringing Stories to Life and our more activity based club, which is a mixture of keep fit, mindfulness and yoga.

Learning Resource Centre

We realise how important reading is for all our children. Reading with your child helps build their vocabulary, language and literacy skills, while improving concentration, curiosity and memory. We want all our children to love books and aim to instil in them the habit of regular reading.

Our well-stocked LRC offers every pupil free access to a huge range of fiction and non-fiction books that they can borrow, or renew their current loan, on a weekly basis. All our pupils are given the opportunity to visit the LRC with their class once a week and during their lunchtime break.


Book Fair

We hold a Book Fair twice yearly in school where children and parents can purchase a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books at reasonable prices. These are usually held in November and March.
