Bee Active also provide lunch time clubs twice a week for both our KS1 and KS2 children with the aim of promoting an active lifestyle, increasing participation and developing knowledge of sports and games.
In addition to all of the fabulous clubs and sports, Bee Active have previously provided a ‘boot camp’ session before the doors open to school each morning. Children, parents and staff were all invited to join and the club has been very well received! Healthy mind, healthy body! (We are hoping to get this back up and running later this year so watch this space).
Other clubs and events.
The staff and children at our school are always ready and willing to take on new challenges. Sport and Physical Activity are enjoyed by all here at St Thomas Aquinas and we regularly take part in larger projects such as performances and shows. Our KS2 children have become involved annually in a Dance Extravaganza which involves the children learning a dance routine through weekly Street Dance sessions to then perform on stage at the Victoria Hall along with other schools.
We have also started to offer a weekly dance class for our Year 1, 2 and 3 children. From Spring 2023 they will be looking at a different dance style each half-term, starting with modern dance.
