At Walton, we believe that extra-curricular enrichment clubs are a fundamental part of the school day and our wider offer for the curriculum.
From 2025-26 we have started to expand our extra-curricular enrichment offer, significantly increasing the number and variety of clubs available, all for free and open to all children! This is in addition to our Lunchtime Club, Breakfast Club & Wraparound care offer in school. Extra-curricular enrichment clubs not only give children the opportunity to develop a new passion or skill or provide exit routes for progression, but give children the chance to work with a range of different children and staff.
More Information
See below for more information about our extra-curricular enrichment clubs.
Inclusivity
Our clubs are completely inclusive and open to everyone. If you think your child may need additional support or adaptations to fully enjoy a club, just let us know! We are also exploring sensory-friendly clubs.
Feedback
We are always looking for ways to further improve our offer, so if you have any links or think there is something else we could run, please let us know. For example, it was fed back that our community wanted more clubs for FS2, so in the summer term we opened up more clubs to our youngest children!
Other Clubs
As well as our standard after-school clubs, we also offer a number of ‘one-off’ clubs and workshops over the year, or limited timed clubs such as theatre, sports events or Young Voices and more. Keep checking the newsletters to see what’s coming up.
How To Book
Booking onto after-school clubs is easy. All bookings can be made within a few taps, using our My Child at School app. Clubs go live at a specific time on an evening to allow all parents the opportunity to sign their children up, and more information can be found on our MCAS page.
Benefits of Extra-Curricular Enrichment Clubs
After-school clubs have a number of benefits to both children and parents:
- Children develop confidence, social skills and communication
- Children can form relationships with new staff members in school
- Children can learn a new skills or even find a new hobby
- Parents have the peace-of-mind that their child is being cared for, and for free or a minimal price
- Gives more flexibility to working parents or parents with other commitments
