We delighted that every single teacher in the school has again volunteered to contribute to our annual calendar for after-school activities. Unlike many other schools, this means that most of our activities are provided free of charge. Considering our limitations in terms of staff numbers and the fact this is a voluntary staff service, it is important to note the following:
- The school will continue to provide extra-curricular activities only to those finishing at 3.00 pm.
- Teacher-led sports will this year be offered free to all P5 to P7 children.
- Other sports activities will be offered by these will be provided at a cost through Sports City.
- Other alternative options (not sport-related) will also be offered free during the year to children from P4 to P7. These will mainly be in term two when outdoor sport is regularly curtailed by the weather.
- To ensure an appropriate teacher/pupil ratio for the safe management of the group, all outdoor activities will be supervised by two members of staff.
- To ensure outdoor sports can move inside when it rains, only one sport will be provided on a daily basis during the first term.
- We have insufficient teachers to offer free extra-curricular sporting activities for all children, however, we still want to provide the opportunity for all P4 – P7 children to access sport. Therefore, to widen our scope, P4 children who still wish to access extra-curricular sport can continue to do this on a Monday or Friday afternoon. The provider for this will be Sportscity.
We sincerely thank our teaching staff for their generosity in continuing to selflessly commit to this aspect of Edenderry school life.
