Lower School Co-curricular Program: The Lower School Co-curricular Program aims to provide an opportunity for students to engage in activities that allow them to interact socially while learning new skills and sports in a safe and friendly environment.
Activities are offered for students in Kindergarten through Grade 4. There are club offerings Monday through Thursday, and clubs run for approximately eight weeks on a trimester basis. When deciding whether you wish your child(ren) to participate in the activities program, we strongly urge parents to consider your child’s other commitments, such as music lessons, scouts, and tutoring, when signing them up for any after-school clubs.
For those families who may need their child(ren) to attend a club on an occasional basis, we are happy to offer the option to sign your child(ren) up for a one-off session. This opportunity is based on the availability of sufficient space in the club on the date required.
Before and after each trimester season, we provide a club recess where students will be free of scheduled after-school club commitments. We do offer an optional LS Royals Club on these weeks, which parents can sign up for.
Lower School clubs finish at 5 p.m. Students who regularly ride the school bus home will take the later bus home on their club day(s). If you collect your child from school, you should do so at your regular pick-up point at 5:05 p.m.
Students should remember that when they are participating in the Lower School Co-curricular Program, they are in school. Their behavior should be the same in their club as in the classroom, and they are expected to abide by all school rules.
Just as during the academic day, all of our Lower School co-curricular club coaches and teachers strive to help each child develop self-respect and respect for others. Students are encouraged to speak courteously, to listen attentively, to wait their turn patiently, and to accept differences. In cases of poor conduct, a note will be sent home and/or parents may be called.
