Extra Curricular and Clubs
Wider Curriculum Opportunities
Wider curriculum opportunities encompass activities and experiences that go beyond the core subjects (such as English, maths, and science) to enrich pupils’ learning, personal development, and skills.
We plan opportunities that are linked to children’s learning. Alongside the below opportunities, each year all of our pupils will take part in:
Coppice 50
Forest School Sessions (weekly in EYFS and one half-term in Y1-6)
Pupil Voice Conference
Life Skills Day
Around the World Afternoon
Themed Days (e.g, Rock Hero Day, World Book Day etc.)
Extra-Curricular Clubs
Clubs are a popular feature of Coppice Valley life.
Throughout the year we offer a variety of clubs both after school or during lunchtimes to promote social and cultural development. Clubs usually run for a 5-7 week block. Some clubs, run by school staff charge a very small fee if there are costs for materials whilst others are free. Clubs run by professionals from the local community usually incur a cost. Examples of the clubs we may offer are:
- gardening (working with the local allotment society to grow fruit and vegetables at school)
- ICT (providing opportunities for use of ICT, plus skill development and e-Safety)
- karate
- basketball
- total energy multi-sports
- gymnastics
- zumba/street dance
- recorders
- homework help
- running club
- hockey
