At St. Matthew's, our school week finishes at 1pm on a Friday. We then run a series of clubs from 1pm-2pm, and 2pm to 3pm. These include clubs providing by our teaching team which may include a range of creative and play based opportunities. We are also fortunate to be able to offer children the chance to participate in a range of physical clubs including:
We Do Football
Dance
Multi Sports
Martial Arts
The school office updates parents at the start of each term with which clubs are available and they can be booked through the MCAS app. School run clubs incur a small charge for resources and staffing. External clubs may charge slightly more for their services.
Leadership Opportunities
At our school, children of all ages can become leaders. This may be having certain roles in the classroom. It can also be more formal roles including representing their class on the School Council, being a Sports Captain, a Playground Pastor, an OPAL Play Leader (coming summer 2025!).
We believe that such opportunities offer children the chance to become more involved in the wider life of the school and to develop their confidence and leadership skills in a supportive environment.
