The Junior School has a good range of extra–curricular activities and many clubs run both during lunch time and after school. All clubs are led by either external organisations, parents or members of school staff.  The clubs available change each term and a timetable of all clubs and application forms for external and after-school clubs is sent out during the first few weeks of each term.
