Learning Together, Achieving More
At Olton Primary we continually look for ways to achieve the Government’s target of providing the children with 5 hours a week of physical activity. We now run a physical activity club after school every night of the week.
Some of our clubs are taken by members of staff and the rest are run by qualified external providers. We have a number of school sports teams, which compete against other schools.
We also offer a wide range of activities after school, which cater for all interests and are run by members of staff – more information to follow.
Extra Curricular Clubs and Activities
We have been planning additional extracurricular clubs to offer to our children in the Summer term. Followng the recent parent survey, this was also an area that parents highlighted as an aspect of school life that parents wanted to see developed further.
The full range of clubs that are on offer are shown below and letters for individual clubs have already started coming out to parents with others to follow. All of the clubs on offer have a maximum number and so places will be offered on a first-come first-served basis.
Clubs that are organised by external providers will have their own booking and payment procedures which are included in the letters sent out.
There will also be a KS2 Homework Club in the Summer term which Mrs. Gray will run. The day this club will run will be shared before we finish for Easter. In addition to the clubs that are offered, through our Solihull Schools Sports Partnership Programme, different year groups also get the opportunity to participate in a range of sporting activities such as cheerleading, multi-sports, netball, football, tri-golf and cricket. We will continue to review the range of clubs that we have on offer so we can provide different opportunities that all of our children can enjoy.
