Students are encouraged to take on as many activities as they want, as long as time is left for learning, homework, and coursework.<\/p>\n<p>In Year 10 and 11 there is an emphasis on taking on a leadership role, or assisting in an activity as well as participation.<\/p>\n<p>Together, our students and teaching staff make up a vibrant community of individuals at Holy Mary British Catholic School, with a shared passion that teaching and learning should not be confined to the classroom. Instead, <strong>we strive to harness the creative spirit of our bright young minds<\/strong>, and inspire self-expression from a very young age.<br \/>\nOur fun extra-curricular programme is a key part of informal learning and a great opportunity to make new friends, as well as building social confidence, resourcefulness and problem-solving skills.<\/p>\n<p>Held during lunch times or after school, these activities are hugely popular and range from <strong>sports, artistic endeavours and a choir<\/strong>, though we also run a daily <strong>homework club<\/strong> for those who want to study with the support and supervision of a staff member.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amongst the array of clubs on offer are:<\/strong> Art, Science, Computer coding well as numerous opportunities in Music, Drama and Sport. We also run regular classes in ballet.<br \/>\nMost after-school activities end at 5.30pm, when participating children invariably leave school for the evening feeling animated and fulfilled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Extra-curricular activities run from Tuesday-Thursday at Holy Mary.
