This year in St Catherine’s we have some exciting and wonderful after school clubs planned for our school. These clubs will be planned for all year groups from Primary 1- Primary 7 throughout the year.

Every term we usually send out a newsletter detailing the exact clubs that will run for that term and what year groups they are available for, however due to the uncertainty in these unprecedented times, this year we will be posting all information on clubs on our website.

Our aim is to provide quality after school’s activities for all our pupils in every year group.

This is a fun and worthwhile club, where the children will learn and develop new skills and take part in exercise. 

Please note, pupils should come to school dressed in P.E gear on the days that they are taking part in the club. 

Please note that parents will be informed of upcoming after school clubs pertaining to their child’s class.

We really do hope to see all the children take advantage of these fantastic after school’s clubs throughout the year.

Thank you for your continued support
