Extra Curricular
Drama
As well as being able to enjoy theatrical productions as members of an audience at venues such as Kendal, Leeds and Blackpool, our children learn drama and theatre skills as part of English, Humanities and PSHCEE as well as being involved in role-play in other subjects. Children in all three years are involved in our productions.
Rehearsals are held in enrichment sessions and after school and the children's work is performed to parents and members of the community at the end of the term. Costumes, make-up and scenery combine to add an extra dimension.
Sport
A wide range of teams offer varied opportunities for children to develop their sporting skills and interest according to the season. In addition to fixtures with teams from other schools, there are inter-house competitions in athletics, cross country running, hockey, netball, football, table tennis, basketball, rounders and swimming. All children are encouraged to take part. There are also a number of inter-form competitions taking place throughout the year. A dance performance is usually produced for our Variety Show.Residential Visits
Each year group is given the opportunity of a residential trip. These visits are arranged as extensions to the education and social development of each and every child. The visits have tremendous benefits so we hope all pupils will take part. However, there is no obligation and provision is made in school for those children unable to take part. The visits are important experiences in sharing, co-operation and self-reliance as well as being very enjoyable.
We currently offer the following visits:
| Year 6 Lake District | 4 days, youth hostel emphasis on environmental studies. |
| Year 7 & 8 East Barnby | 5 days, outdoor activity centre. |
| Years 7 & 8 France | 8 day exchange with the College St.Joseph, Herbignac, staying in the homes of pen friends. |
Comenius Visits
For the last five years we have been able to offer an all expenses paid trip to one of our partner schools to a small number of pupils. The pupils have represented the school at conferences in Finland, France, Norway and Austria.
Other Visits & Visitors
We offer a range of trips, out of school hours and day trips, to museums, theatres, etc. organised by each year group or by subject teachers where appropriate. Visiting artists, poets, musicians and theatre groups - English and French - are invited into school on a regular basis and are highly valued by staff and pupils alike.
Because of community links with La Chapelle des Marais in France, we are fortunate to be able to welcome French visitors quite often. As part of the French Exchange, we welcome a class of French youngsters to the school and our homes for one week each year. Pupils and teachers from our partner European Schools visit on a less regular basis. Each year we have a guest assistant teacher from Japan for a period of up to ten months.
