Activity Days
Activity Days 2026
To celebrate the end of the academic year 2026; our much-loved activity days will run on Wednesday 24th and Thursday 25th June 2026!
Please look over the activities on offer with your child, and once their selection has been made, ask your child to visit the lead teacher between 25th May - 29th May to add their names onto the list.
Spaces for these activities will NOT be filled on a first-come first-served basis. Should the activity chosen by your child be over-subscribed, a ballot will be run by the teacher to promote fairness and inclusion.
For excursions out with school grounds: - Once your child's name has been added to the list, we will be in touch during the first week in June to confirm spaces, via email.
Payments will be accepted at the main school office between 8th June - 19th June for the confirmed students who have received an email. Both cash and card payments are accepted here. E22 permission slips will be added onto the parent's portal and available for completion within this same week.
