For children, adults & families
At the Schools
All schools provide a range of activities after school and at lunchtimes.
Many of them are free. To find out more about what is on offer at a particular school please follow the links from the schools page.Outside school
There are lots of links and contact information on this page to help you find out about clubs or activities running outside school.
Please note these links are a starting point for locating activities providers. It is not a comprehensive list nor does inclusion in the links constitute an endorsement of any individual providers or activities. If you are considering using one of these providers you should reassure yourself of an organisation’s suitability to work with children and young people and the quality and safety of the services on offer, for example by visiting provision, looking at inspection reports, etc.
And please check out the staying safe advice.
