Lunch Clubs
To enrich pupils’ lunchtime experience and foster engagement during their half-hour social time, we offer a variety of lunch clubs catering to diverse interests.
These clubs include:
- Quiet Club: A calm environment where pupils can enjoy activities such as jigsaw puzzles and other quiet pastimes.
- Sports Clubs: Opportunities for physical activity through basketball, football, and other team sports.
- Computing Club: A space for pupils to explore technology and enhance their digital skills.

These clubs not only keep pupils engaged but also promote social interaction, skill development, and a sense of community within the school.
