Enriching Lives Through Extra-Curricular Activities

At The Oldershaw School, we believe that education extends far beyond the classroom. Our diverse range of extra-curricular activities plays a vital role in developing well-rounded young people who are confident, skilled, and ready to thrive in the wider world.

Taking part in clubs, sports, arts, and other activities helps our students to:

• Discover new talents and passions – whether it’s on the sports field, in the drama studio, or through music and creative pursuits
• Build confidence and resilience – trying new things and overcoming challenges helps students grow as individuals
• Develop essential life skills – teamwork, leadership, communication, and time management are all strengthened through extra-curricular involvement
• Form lasting friendships – shared interests create strong bonds and a real sense of belonging within our school community
• Boost wellbeing – engaging in activities they enjoy supports students’ mental health and creates a healthy balance in their lives
• Enhance their future prospects – universities and employers value the commitment, dedication, and breadth of experience that extra-curricular activities demonstrate

We actively encourage every student at The Oldershaw School to get involved in at least one activity. Whether you’re passionate about sport, creative arts, STEM, volunteering, or something else entirely, there’s something for everyone. Our dedicated staff are committed to providing opportunities that inspire, challenge, and support every young person to reach their full potential – both in and out of the classroom.
