Pinders School Clubs Programme

The School Club Programme aims to offer our pupils experiences and activities that go beyond the curriculum.  We want every individual to have to opportunity to extend their skills and talents in a range of areas, such as: sports clubs, music, the dramatic arts and design, as well as many others.  

Throughout the year we run a number of after school clubs. These include sports clubs run by coaches and other clubs. We would like to encourage all of our pupils to attend an after school club so keep an eye out for letters coming home each term and ask your child if there is a club they are interested in.

Being part of a club has a wide range of benefits, including:

• Mixing with existing friends in a new environment helps children learn to share and appreciate each other’s talents and abilities.
• Engaging with new friends and being in a productive environment helps strengthen confidence and independence.
• Developing and succeeding in new activities helps build character and enhance strong leadership skills.
• After-school activities provide children with positive role models they can relate to, offering a fresh perspective outside of home life.
• Children with a hobby are less likely to spend too much time in front of the television.

This academic year we have these wonderful clubs which run for 6 weeks:

• Forest School Club
• Art Club
• Football club
• Girls Football club
• Rugby club
• French club
• Music band club
• Netball club
• Gardening club
• Choir
• Computing club
• Drama club

Places and attendance

Places are limited for all of the clubs and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. 

Our clubs are run on a rolling program. Most clubs are very popular and are often oversubscribed. We use a first come, first served system to be as fair as possible. The clubs are run by a mixture of school staff and external coaches who we employ.

Non-attendance will be followed up. If for any valid reason your child can not attend please notify the school office.
