Extracurricular

Alongside our first-class academic curriculum, we provide a vast array of enrichment and extracurricular opportunities so all of our girls have the chance to learn something new, hone their unique talents and skills, and step out of their comfort zones.

Our girls enjoy so much more than an excellent academic education. We provide countless leadership opportunities, expand girls’ horizons and give them excellent advantages as they move up through the school and beyond.

Naturally you will find an active sports faculty in the school, fielding teams at the highest level in hockey, swimming, netball, cricket and athletics. Our sports centre houses a swimming pool, fitness suite and sports halls for a variety of indoor sports and wellbeing activities such as yoga and pilates. A whole range of activities are on offer as lunchtime and after-school clubs as part of our unique REC (Radically Enriched Curriculum) offering for pupils.

If you enjoy ballet, drama or music, you will find many opportunities to join in, whether you want to take individual instrumental lessons, join an orchestra or other ensemble or take part in one of the many plays which are organized in school. Each year we stage either a play or musical and pupils from all years can participate as actors, musicians or backstage. In addition there are smaller performances organized in different year groups such as the House plays and House music competition.

Pupils can also choose to undertake the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, beginning with the Bronze award in Year 10 and continuing to the Silver and Gold award if they choose, and in addition to the large-scale activities, there are numerous other extracurricular opportunities, from debating to dancing, from coding to crafts, for the beginner, the improver and the expert.
