AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS on MONDAYS AND WEDNESDAY: Please note that if any After School club is cancelled at short notice due to staff shortage and there is another Club being held on the same day, children will automatically stay to do the alternative After School club.          This refers to Dragon Sports (Tennis) and Netball on Mondays and Tri-Golf and Rugby on Wednesdays. Please note that Dragon Sports and Netball are weather dependent.
