Extra-Curricular Clubs
We have designed an extra-curricular programme tailored for each year group with a menu of options available to students which will change on a termly basis. Student requests for new clubs are welcomed and encouraged in order to continue to develop and broaden the range of extra-curricular clubs we are able to offer. Students will be invited to re-select their chosen club at the start of each Academic term.
Participation in extra-curricular clubs is strongly encouraged and will allow students to start working towards their club badges which are aligned with our Academy values.
Attending a club will help develop a child's self-esteem, self-confidence, moral, social and interaction skills. Clubs can also help build friendships as they share interests. Attending clubs helps to broaden children's interests, introducing key skills which will be useful later in life. At Bexleyheath Academy, we would like our students to attend one club per term.
If you have any questions regarding extra-curricular clubs, please contact Mr Choudhury, Assistant Principal (schoudhury@bexleyheathacademy.org).

Extra-Curricular Success | Christmas Concert
Students in Year 07, 08, 09 & 11 played Christmas classics for two audiences. They performed for the Parkview Care Residents in the afternoon and then their families in the evening. Ms Liu, Teacher of Music said: “Our students have been preparing for the Christmas concert for the past 06 weeks. Students from each of our music clubs took part:
Year 07 Choir
Year 08 Keyboard Club
Year 09 Band Club
Year 11 Band Club
Whilst students performed separately, there were collaborative pieces from different clubs and it was great to see students supporting and encouraging each other from different year groups. Both performances were magical.”
Extra-Curricular Success | Warhammer Club
Warhammer clubs is a popular club which runs on Friday afternoon. The club is run by our local police officers PC Watson and PC Whitcombe. In this club, students build their own action figures and paint them with detail. Students will then use these action figures to play a table top miniature war game. Students in the club have said the following:
"I like building my own figures and design them how I want. I get to take my players home."
"Each week, I get to make a new player, I can't wait to make them all."
"I have made friend's in different year groups that like Warhammer."
During Term 02, student in Warhammer club entered a competition for the designing the best space marine outfit. Students have spent the term, patiently painting their figures. The winners of the competitions were Renan (Year 10) for the level of detail in his paint work and Alex (Year 07) for the blueprint of his design.
Extra-Curricular Success | Drama Club
Drama club is an excellent way for students to; build confidence, develop team working skills, develop communication skills and be creative. Drama club is very popular amongst our KS3 students and many of the students that join the club at KS3 go on to studying the subject for their GCSEs. During Term 02, our Year 11 students performed for friends, family and staff. The performance was part of their Btec qualification. Students performed parts of:
DNA
Frankenstein
Blood Brothers
And more…….
The students displayed courage and talent throughout. All students had been a part of the Drama Club since Year 07. The Performing Arts Department had prepared students well and we thank them for supporting the students in being successful on the night. We can not wait to see them in the West End in years to come.
