    After School Activity Clubs

    We have a good choice of clubs available for families to choose from each term. Clubs range from drama and dance to sports and pottery. Children really enjoy the clubs; both for what the club is offering and for the social aspects.

    We work closely with our providers to ensure children get the best possible experience each week delivered by committed and quality tutors and coaches. Where possible these tutors and coaches are also supported by existing Woodberry Down staff members.

    Clubs run from 3.30pm until 4.45pm (unless stated otherwise). 3.30pm – 3.45pm is snack time; please provide your child with a light healthy snack. If your child attends a dance or sports-based club please do send them to school, on the day of their club, in their PE kit.

    Summer Term – Clubs can now be purchased.

    Please purchase via MCAS if you are interested.

    - Improves cardio level for a healthier heart and lungs.

    - Provides a better self-defence.

    - A form of controlled expression for the children. Our Non-Contact Boxing requires a high level of respect from the children for the coach and each other, we practice listening, assisting and trusting one and other in each session which provides a newly found dimension of thoughtfulness and awareness amongst the group that can be used in everyday life.

    Classes are designed and managed by Olympian and 4-time British Champion James Beevers. All our coaches are trained personally by James and hold enhanced DBS certificates.

    Little Musketeers are proud to be internationally endorsed by Olympians, educators and scientists from across the world. All equipment is either plastic or foam and gives children the real feel of fencing.

    All of our sessions will be run in accordance to the school’s Covid-19 regulations. Our equipment is sanitised before and after each session and where possible, children will be designated their own mask and sword for each session. Furthermore, we feel fencing is the perfect Covid-19 sport - you wear masks and, if anyone gets too close, you lunge!
