Fishergate pupils are very fortunate in having access to such a range of extra-curricular activities; we are proud of the way their skills develop through these additional opportunities. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school and would not want any child to miss out on a club because of financial difficulty. If you qualify for free school meals, we may be able to help you with payment for clubs – please pop in and see Mrs Clarke.
After School and Lunchtime Clubs
We will be starting clubs for thw Autumn term 2025 from Monday 22nd September. Class teachers manage the allocation of club places internally and keep a register of all school-run clubs so that everyone gets a fair turn. If a club runs after school, your child will bring a letter home with information of start and finish times.
Application forms for Total Sports clubs are sent out separately.
Some clubs in school are by invitation only, for example our Giggles club for Young Carers.
At the end of a club the adult leading the club will accompany children, usually to the Y3/4 doors, for collection by parents/carers. Please also remember that clubs occasionally have to be cancelled at short notice. When this happens, you will need to collect at 3.15, as normal.
Instrument Lessons
There are lots of opportunities for children to take part in Music at Fishergate. Children can learn a musical instrument at Fishergate and we currently offer lessons in keyboard/piano, recorder, guitar, singing and violin. Click here for more information about what is available in 2023-2024, including contact information for the tutors.
External Providers of Independent Clubs
In addition, the building is used for lettings after school by a range of external providers. If you would like your child to join one of the following clubs, please contact the provider directly for further information about times, costs and availability. Remember, if your child is in receipt of pupil premium, school will fund at least half the fees.
Please note that we rely on the club provider to keep us up to date with information for this page.
