Extra-curricular activities will be offered over the lunchtime period or after school from 3.00pm for approximately an hour.  (Please note that some sports fixtures may finish later than this.)

All activities are open to students in the year groups indicated, and we encourage students to join for fun, to learn new skills and to support with being selected to represent the School.   

Students who attend extra-curricular activities are awarded with House points for their contribution to displaying our School values of Honesty, Excellence, Ambition, Respect and Teamwork.

If there is something not listed that students would like to see happening, tell us and we will do our best to make it happen!

Please keep revisiting this page, as the activities we offer change termly.

In addition to these activities, we are committed to a comprehensive programme of sporting competitions.  Of all the schools in the local area, we offer students the widest range of sport competitions to be part of.  Whilst participation, and providing students with a breadth of opportunities is our priority, we are proud of the significant success that our sporting teams achieve and are delighted to share these with parents and carers via our social media and fortnightly newsletter. 

Across the year, students may also participate in events such as:  

  • United Kingdom Mathematics Trust (UKMT) Events (all year groups) 
  • Crest Award (Science)
  • Music Concerts (three times per year)
  • Latimer Dance Show
  • Team Building Event (Year 7)
  • Dragon's Den (Year 7)
  • Take Your Child to Work Day (Year 8)
