Welcome from the Deputy Head of Co-Curriculum and Community Here at Amity, we are committed to providing an outstanding all-round

education and life beyond the classroom is an essential aspect of what we offer. We believe that co-curricular activities broaden horizons and

encourage key competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration. Ultimately, we seek to challenge our

pupils and provide them with the skills, confidence, and emotional intelligence, which are now considered important if not essential 21st Century

competencies. Therefore, we do not consider these afterschool and lunchtime activities as ‘extras’. On the contrary, we expect and encourage all students to participate to a greater or lesser degree. They are ‘co’-curricular activities, not ‘extra’-curricular.

We firmly believe that every child has a great number of talents and passions yet to be discovered. The Amity daily experience is designed to unearth these talents and to develop them to the fullest over time.

Using the school’s outstanding campus facilities, involvement in the programmes on offer not only will enable our pupils to be high achievers in their chosen activities, but they are great fun too.

Enjoy and give of your very best!

After a class has visited the Shared Area and accessed the CCA, it will be sanitised ready for the next class. The CCA activities will be provided by our talented Nursery and Reception teachers.

Term 1 (19th September to 9th December) Þ In Year 1, due to Covid restrictions we will have a slightly different approach to CCAs. We will have a CCA classroom that all the children will get to

visit during the week. As we are still using the bubble methodology we will go in our bubbles, but this will mean there will be no partition. The room will be sanitised between every session. The room will be sectioned into different learning and activity areas so that the children can choose what activity they would like to access.

Þ There is no need for your child to sign up. All the children will access this room during the course of the school day. This space will be a lovely way for your children to enhance their learning outside of the classroom environment. We will be offering the following clubs: ACTIVITY
