Co-Curricular Clubs
CO CURRICULAR
CLUBS
BSAK offers an extensive range of co-curricular activities for children in Year 3-6 which enrich the educational experience for all of our students.
Activities are advertised via our online co-curricular management system (iSOCs) and parents sign their children up for activities before the start of each term. Further information regarding the clubs on offer and sign up are sent to parents at the beginning of the academic year. We have a wide range of academic, pastoral, instrumental, artistic and sporting clubs for the students to choose from; developing skills such as team building and confidence in a positive learning environment outside of the normal classroom setting. Some activities are ‘invite only’ or through selection by ‘trials’ – full details are shared with parents prior to sign up taking place. We encourage all students to participate in the co-curricular program throughout the year as it is viewed as part of the ‘BSAK experience’.
Individual instrumental and singing tuition is offered by our full-time team of specialist Music teachers. Lessons are arranged on a rota basis for students, so as to avoid missing the same academic lesson each week.
Associated Board instrumental and theory exams and Trinity Classical, Rock n Pop and Music Theatre exams may be taken twice per year. While many pupils are encouraged to take exams, it is understood that for others this may not be the best course of study. Ultimately, our aim is to deliver tuition which is tailored to the individual's needs. The department also offers Music Theory and Aural classes as well as a plethora of co-curricular ensembles.
