The Junior School offers a wide range of after-school activities, designed in such a way to give pupils a chance to develop skills they may not otherwise have the opportunity to enhance.
To our P6 and P7 year groups, we offer Basketball, Climbing, Hockey, Rugby and Athletics. Along with the pupils from Primaries 4 and 5, these two groups also have the opportunity to engage in the other clubs on offer: Football, Netball, Dance and Gymnastics, Mary's Meals, Cooking, Rights Respecting and Playground, Coding, STEM, Lego, Gaming, Cheerleading, Book and Film, Board and Card and Debating.
With the exception of Climbing, all our clubs are free of charge. They take place on our school campus and run from 3.30pm to 4.30pm. Athletics, Hockey and Rugby activities take place at our Sports Grounds at Millerston and the National Hockey Centre at Glasgow Green.
