Extra-curricular clubs offer a wealth of benefits for children. They provide opportunities to develop new skills and interests outside of the traditional classroom setting, fostering a sense of curiosity and enthusiasm.
Participation in these activities can significantly boost confidence, as children discover hidden talents and excel in areas they may not have previously explored. A child who once struggled with maths may well excel once they discover they have a hidden talent for something else.
Bassett House School offers a wide spectrum of activities that encourage self-expression and the development of talents outside the classroom, allowing children to explore new subjects, build friendships and connect with peers who share similar interests.
Weekly clubs include art, animation, coding, cooking, chess, drama, fencing, horse riding, martial arts, netball, swimming and yoga. Visiting music teachers offer individual music tuition and pupils can join the school chamber choir, senior and junior choirs and instrumental ensembles including a rock band!
If your child is a budding journalist, they have the chance to develop their reporting skills via our radio station club, ‘Bassett Radio’, and through our newspaper club ‘Bassett’s Big News’.
