Clubs and Societies

Our vibrant programme of clubs in the Lower School offers something for every child, from Pre-Reception through to Upper 3, reflecting the wonderfully varied interests and talents within our school community. Pupils can explore sport, drama and performing arts, or express their creativity through craft, music, pottery and Lego. For those who enjoy movement and mindfulness, there are opportunities to take part in Yoga, Cheerleading, Dance and Hip Hop, while language enthusiasts can discover French and even Sign Language. Whether pupils are keen to develop a new skill, pursue a hobby, such as the ever popular Beyblades Club, or simply try something different, our clubs provide a rich and engaging addition to the school day.


We are proud that our clubs are shaped as closely as possible around the children’s own interests. From knitting and puzzles to wellbeing sessions and imaginative play, each club is designed to spark curiosity, build confidence and encourage collaboration. By offering such a broad and inclusive range of activities, we ensure that every child can find a club that feels both enjoyable and meaningful.


Pupil voice lies at the heart of our clubs programme. New ideas and suggestions are regularly shared through the School Council, where children play an active role in shaping the opportunities available to them. Their enthusiasm and creativity help to keep our provision fresh, exciting and relevant, ensuring that our clubs continue to reflect the passions and interests of the pupils themselves.

On Tuesday 10 February, Lower Twos visited Norwich Cathedral for a morning of rich, cross-curricular learning. The children explored the significance of stained-glass windows and how they were used to tell Bible stories to people in the past. They learned about the history of St Julian and their connection to Norwich and studied how key moments in Jesus’ life are portrayed through the cathedral windows. Pupils showed curiosity, asked thoughtful questions, and represented the school brilliantly.

What a joyful, toe-tapping concert it was! The hall buzzing with excitement as very young musicians from Lower 1 and Upper 1 (some performing for the very first time) took to the stage, beaming with pride and confidence. From the very first notes, it was clear this was a celebration not just of music, but of courage, enthusiasm, and the sheer fun of performing. Smiling families filled the room, cameras at the ready, soaking up every moment as each of our Lower School pupils shared their hard work and musical imagination. The piano pieces sparkled with variety and character. Familiar melodies like Ode to Joy floated out warmly and confidently, while playful pieces such as Whirleybird , ABC Playtime , and Up and Down Song bounced along with energy and charm. More atmospheric moments appeared too, from the gentle magic of Walking in the Air to the bouncy rhythms of Minnie Mouse Hits The Town! There were also lovely storytelling moments at the piano, with music inspired by wildlife, farmers, and even a cheerful boat ride or two. Every performance, no matter how short was delivered with huge smiles, careful concentration and an infectious sense of joy. Overall, the L1 and U1 Informal Concert was a heart-warming showcase of young talent and growing confidence. The enthusiasm of the performers, the supportive energy of the audience, and the wide range of music made it a truly uplifting event, one that left everyone applauding loudly and walking away with happy hearts.  Head of Music Mr Vine said 'another fantastic concert full of music making at its finest! So proud of our L1 and U1 pupils who worked so hard to get their pieces ready. A big thank you as always, to our fabulous visiting music tutors for all their guidance and preparation! Bravo to all!'

On Tuesday 3 January, Upper 2 visited Norwich Synagogue as part of their learning about the local community. The children were immersed in an enriching experience that helped them develop an understanding of different cultures and traditions. They particularly enjoyed dressing up with a kippah and a tallit, and were fascinated by the opportunity to view the Torah scrolls. The visit provided a valuable and memorable insight into the Jewish faith and community around us.
