Co-Curricular Activities

There are many co-curricular activities held at lunchtimes or after school hours, including sporting, leisure and musical activities. You will be spoilt for choice! Some of the activities involve specially trained staff and thus are charged as an ‘extra’ and are detailed on the fee sheet.

In addition, the Junior School pupils have the opportunity to experience a wide range of extra sporting activities, including cross country, football, mini tennis, lacrosse, yoga, mini rugby, uni-hoc, swimming, sewing, golf, netball, badminton, aerobics and jazz dancing. The emphasis is firmly on fun!

“From the first moment that a student sets foot in a Catholic school, he or she ought to have the impression of entering a new environment, one illumined by the light of faith, and having its own unique characteristics ..."     

Fr. Christopher Jamison 

 “Pupils follow a demanding and imaginative curriculum and are successful in entry to the senior schools of their choice, including the award of scholarships” and “Their personal development benefits from a carefully planned programme of personal, social and health education. Parents and pupils commend the wide range of clubs and opportunities outside the classroom”.
