Compulsory and Voluntary Activities and Signing Up Below is an explanation of which activity sessions are compulsory and which are optional for each year group.

Pre-Prep and Juniors – Reception to Year 4 All activities for the Pre-Prep and Juniors are outside the school day and are, therefore, entirely optional. When signing up for activities: • If your child does not wish to take part in any activities in a particular session please just leave that section • Put your child’s first choice activity as number 1 • Put any other activities that they would be happy to do if choice number 1 is full in order of preference • Choose “No activity” as the final choice Middles and Seniors Years 5 to 8 All children in Years 5 to 8 must opt for activities in session 2 (4.15pm to 4.50pm) and 3 (4.55pm to 5.30pm) on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. There is, however, Chapel / Assembly on Friday session 2 which children will be automatically added to. Similarly, session 3 on Friday will be a tutor time for Years 5 and 6. Children signing up for Saturday mornings do not need to sign up for all 4 sessions. However, please ensure that activities are consecutive. For example, they should not sign up for sessions 1 and 3 with nothing in session 2. If children in Years 5 to 8 wish to do any activities in session 4 or any early morning, lunchtime activities or Saturday morning activities, these are completely optional. When signing up for activities: • If your child does not wish to take part in any activities in a particular session please just leave that section • Put your child’s first choice activity as number 1 • Put any other activities that they would be happy to do if choice number 1 is full in order of preference • Choose “No activity” as the final choice Please note that, only making one choice in a session does NOT increase the likelihood of being allocated to that activity. If your child is in Years 5 to 8 and they have something on outside school which means that they will be unable to take part in activities during session 2 and 3 on a regular basis please contact Paul Shouksmith, the Deputy Head, to seek permission for this. On SOCS please choose “out of school” for the relevant se ssions.
