Olton Primary School
Learning Together, Achieving More.
School Clubs
Extra Curricular Clubs
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. Following 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.
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.
The following After School Clubs and Activities Clubs are available for KS1/KS2 in September 2024.
For more details, please refer to the document section below

Dear Parents/Carers,
Gamebuilding After School Computing Club – Years 3-6
During today's assembly, KS2 had a visit from Coach Dan who runs Jam Coding Computing workshops. He told them about a really exciting opportunity on offer for children in Year 3-6 to sign up to a new after school club that will be starting in January 2025.
Within the coding sessions, children will have the chance to make 2D and 3D games, whilst competing to win points for the trophy. Year 5 Antelopes got to trial one of Coach Dan's sessions a few weeks ago and the children thoroughly enjoyed it.
Please refer to the flyer with more information and the link to sign your child up for this really exciting club.
Yours sincerely, Miss B Turner
Year 5 Teacher & Computing Lead
