General Club Information
NO extra-curricular clubs run during the first week of a new term or the last week of term. Catch-up clubs (e.g. due to cancellations) run in the last week of term and occasionally the penultimate week of term. Dates for catch-up clubs are listed in the Club Timetable section for the academic year displayed. NO extra-curricular clubs run on school closure days (i.e. INSET days, bank holiday or half-term).
Club Registration
Club Registration
- Tetherdown club providers: Registration is required for each new term for extra-curricular clubs run by Tetherdown. These clubs are identified in our published timetable. Parents will be contacted in the previous term for registration for the next term. Only choir, orchestra and jazz band (by invite) do not need to re-register in the spring and summer terms as these clubs are a commitment for the academic year starting in September.
- External club providers: For club registration and information about clubs run by our external providers, please contact them directly. Contact details can be found in the published club timetable. For Autumn Term only - new reception pupils wishing to take an extra curricular club can register with a club to start after half term.

Club Cancellation and Catch-up classes
Club Cancellation and Catch-up classes
-
If your child's extracurricular club at the end of the school day is cancelled by the provider, parents are advised to make alternative pick-up arrangements for their child and to notify the school office via email of the new arrangement no later than 2:45pm. Parents should not assume that the Tetherdown after-school club can take their child following a club cancellation if they cannot make alternative pick-up arrangements.
-
Children who normally attend the Tetherdown after-school club directly after the cancelled extracurricular club (e.g. tennis) can go straight to after-school club at the end of the school day, however you will be charged accordingly for this session via ParentPay.
-
Catch-up classes will be rearranged where possible for club cancellations and typically take place at the end of the term in which the club was cancelled. The catch-up club timetable is uploaded to this page at the end.
Medical Conditions and Clubs
Please note for all extra-curricular clubs, including half-term and holiday camps, it is the responsibility of the parents to pass on pupil medical condition(s) as necessary to the club provider, including whether your child has a health care plan in school with medication.
