Out of School Activities

The school is fortunate in having members of staff who are willing to give up their free time to provide additional activities for the children’s benefit out of school hours, either at lunchtime or after school. It is hoped that parents will co-operate in allowing their children to take advantage of these additional learning opportunities by encouraging them to attend meetings and practices regularly. Subject to interest and to the availability of staff there are normally many opportunities for various sporting and musical activities as well as drama and computer activities.

If children are required to stay after school they will either be told a regular day each week or told the previous day so that parents will know that children may be home later. If an after school activity is cancelled, we will inform you via Arbor.

Rocksteady is the UK’s leading provider of rock and pop lessons for primary school children and we’re proud that their fun, inclusive band lessons take place at our school. As well as teaching new musical skills through contemporary rock and pop songs, Rocksteady has a proven significant, positive impact on wellbeing, confidence and life skills. Recently they were awarded ‘Schools Wellbeing Resource of the Year’ at the Education Today awards, for their work inspiring children through music.

Lessons are open for children from years 1 to 6 and they can choose to play either vocals, electric guitar, drums, bass, or keyboards in their very own band. All instruments are provided, and no previous experience is necessary.

Children progress through a 300-skill curriculum learning band, performance and instrument skills and work towards the official Rocksteady Ofqual-regulated, exam-free music qualification, accredited by Trinity College London.

You can follow your child’s progress through your own online via the Rocksteady Parent Timeline as well as seeing how far your child has come when they perform in their termly concert.

You can sign your child up for lessons online at bit.ly/parent-info-web
