Clubs & After School Activities – Year 7

Activities and trips outside of the classroom are an important part of our curriculum and we believe these experiences enrich students’ lives and deepen their understanding of subjects.

Here a number of fantastic opportunities on offer for our Year 7 students this year.*

 

Trip What’s It About
Herd Farm Trip An activity trip  at the beginning of the year to do lots of fun activities like archery, an assault course, climbing tower and giant swing to help make new friends.
Manchester City Football Trip A trip to see a Champions League match.
School Production A chance to get involved in the annual school production.
Kirkstall Abbey Trip Understanding our local history to support the history curriculum.
