This list shows you the range of activities in which you can take part at Hexham Middle School.
As you will see, there is a wide range of activities which we would encourage your child to try. They are scheduled at lunchtimes and after school. For all clubs which take place during the school day, your child simply needs to go along and join in. For the after school clubs, please ensure that your child collects the relevant letter from the teacher who runs the club and you complete it and it is returned to school. If you have any questions, please contact school.
We believe that a broad and engaging extra-curricular programme is very important and we believe it allows our pupils to:
- Learn new skills or improve existing ones
- Take responsibility
- Represent the school
- Explore and develop your talents
- Make new friends
- Consolidate subject matter
If you have any further ideas for suitable activities which are not in this programme please speak to Mrs Frankish, Deputy Headteacher. Make the most of your time at Hexham Middle School and have fun!
For all after school clubs, please ensure that you have completed and returned the relevant permission slip which can be obtained from the club leader.
Please note the sports clubs are weather dependent and are subject to change if there are upcoming fixtures.
