School Clubs 

The clubs are available to the children in the stated year groups and letters will be sent out providing more information. Please click SUMMER TERM 1 Club List 2023-24 for details of year groups, dates, times and contact information for the current term.

If you wish to make contact about a club please email clubsandvisits@archibaldfirstschool.co.uk

Please note that due to high demand for the clubs, you will receive a text confirming if your child has a place at a school organised club. Names are always selected anonymously and at random making the selection criteria as fair as possible. The school office keeps a list of all children who applied for a club for instances of children no longer wishing to take part or if the club is run again later in the year.
