At Turves Green Boys’ School, we aspire to build successful, resilient, and confident individuals by providing a well-rounded education that extends beyond the classroom. We believe that personal growth and development are just as important as academic success, and we are committed to offering a wide range of enriching experiences. Through leadership opportunities, educational visits, careers workshops, guest performances and speakers, and a variety of extra-curricular clubs, we aim to inspire every pupil to explore new interests, develop valuable life skills, and reach their full potential.
As we approach the Easter break, we welcome the change in season, with longer and warmer days ahead. This often means that parents and carers feel more comfortable allowing their children to stay after school for extra-curricular activities, as they can travel home safely while it is still light.
We encourage all pupils to take part in extra-curricular activities, as they provide opportunities to develop confidence, social skills, teamwork, and resilience. Engaging in new experiences outside of lessons can also help pupils discover hobbies and interests that may turn into lifelong passions.
With this in mind, from Monday 31st March, we will be hosting two weeks of Extra-Curricular Taster Sessions to offer pupils the chance to try something new. This initiative is designed to inspire them to step out of their comfort zones, build new friendships, and gain confidence in different settings. A full overview of the Extra-Curricular Taster Session programme will be available on our school website from Monday 24th March.
We encourage you to discuss the programme with your child and support them in taking advantage of these opportunities. By participating, they will not only develop new skills but also form positive relationships with peers and staff, strengthening their sense of belonging within our school community.
Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to seeing our pupils thrive as they explore new experiences.
