    Extra- Curricular Clubs

    At Glasshoughton Infant  Academy, learning extends beyond the classroom. Our extra-curricular clubs give pupils the chance to explore new interests, develop skills, and enjoy experiences that complement their academic studies. 

    These clubs help pupils to: 
    • Build confidence, teamwork, and social skills 
    • Discover new talents and hobbies 
    • Develop resilience, motivation, and independence 
    • Make friends and be part of a supportive community 

    We understand that learning is life-long and that it is crucially important for children to be able to develop new hobbies and interests.  Personal interests are key to forming a strong sense of identity, community and self-worth and learning new skills develops our thinking and resilience.

    At Glasshoughton Infant Academy we offer a range of clubs and extra-curricular activities throughout the year. These include:

    • Drawing Club
    • Yoga Moves
    • Gardening Green Fingers
    • Cookery Club

    All clubs will be shared with our parent and family community via Class Dojo.

    The child has a hundred languages, a hundred hands, a hundred thoughts, a hundred ways of thinking, of playing, of speaking.
