School Clubs
Wonderful Wednesday Clubs
At Stow Heath Primary School, pupils access a broad and balanced curriculum during their school day. However, we want to strengthen our curriculum offer further so we have created six ‘Wonderful Wednesday’ clubs in addition to our sports clubs offer. These clubs develop life skills and support their wellbeing. Whilst we value technology and the benefits it has, we also want pupils to recognise the value and joy, other activities can bring them. Children in Years 1-6 will have the opportunity to access all clubs at some point during the academic year.
