Extended Curriculum
Extra - Curricular clubs, Societies and Opportunities
Extracurricular activities are things that you take part in that are outside of your studies. Joining a club or society, whether this is a sport, language club or anything else, you will be showing that you are a reliable team player. Participating in extracurricular activities builds teamwork, communication, relationships, and a sense of belonging, all of which help students to develop socially and be successful in school. Participation in extracurricular activities demonstrates the importance of community involvement
Taking part in extracurricular activities allows you to develop soft skills which are highly employable and vital in the competitive employment market.
Other than the range of skills, extracurricular activities can also help you focus when you are studying. It gives you time to take a break so you can think about different things. There is a positive correlation between people that do an activity outside of their studies, and people who are more likely to spend time studying – creating a healthy balance between socialising and working.
We offer a wide range of opportunities and hope there is something for everyone but if not suggest an idea at your next year council meeting.
