Extra-Curricular Clubs
We are very proud of the wonderful choice of after-school club opportunities available to the children at Smawthorne Henry Moore, run by our dedicated staff. We strive to provide a wide range of fun filled activities to interest, excite and broaden our children’s learning experiences. Our key aims are to help the children to find their personal strengths and promote skills, such as leadership, team building and communication, whilst also developing a love of learning in various forms.
Clubs run after school on a Thursday, 3.15 to 4.30pm, during the Autumn term.
Please collect your child from the Key Stage 1 hall, entering through the Years 1/2 doors
and exiting through Reception.
