Extra Curricular Activities
Autumn Term 2026

At Sir Harry Smith Community College, students have a rich and varied choice of extra-curricular activities available both at lunchtime and after school. During lunch, pupils can join clubs that foster creative, academic and sporting interests—such as music meet-ups, computing and informal sports or fitness challenges. After school, the programme expands further with structured opportunities in team sports, performing arts (drama, choir and band), academic enrichment (e.g. homework support, subject-based clubs), and leadership or service initiatives. These activities not only give students time to pursue interests outside the curriculum, but also help build friendships, confidence, and skills such as teamwork, time management and self-expression.

All activities are free of charge (except Swimming at The Manor Leisure Centre)

Full PE Kit is required for PE Activities.
