The Arts focus continues in after school clubs and is brought in to the spotlight during our annual Arts week. Whilst we always encourage children to be creative, during this week it is especially so, as children are invited to express themselves freely and to fully explore their own talents and inspirations. Visiting workshops include pottery, African dance, drumming, performance poetry, book illustration, medieval music-making, painting, collage, photography, film and drama. We have also taken part in the ‘Voices & Visions’ Art Festival at Worcester Cathedral.
EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Extra-curricular activities, (held during the lunch break or after school), include recorder groups, football (boys’ and girls’ separate clubs), netball, fencing, chess, ‘Kwik’ cricket, cross country, athletics, tag rugby, drama, gymnastics, choir, orchestra and art club. From time to time we also use outside coaches for activities such as karate, basketball, athletics or rugby. In association with the local cluster of schools we also run a range of sporting competitions and joint arts events.
