Our curriculum teaches children through many first hand experiences, including a wide range of enrichment activities.
Enrichment activities enhance the curriculum and enables pupils to make links with their learning. Each term ensures that pupils participate in a ‘wow moment’ and a ‘celebration’ in order to enhance progress and personal development. Alongside these opportunities we provide a wide range of clubs, invite visitors in to share their knowledge and experiences, alongside topic related trips.
We have a Breakfast Club that runs every school morning from 7.30am to 8.30am (last entry at 8.10am). Your child will enjoy a healthy breakfast, followed by games and activities before it is time to start school. The cost of breakfast club is £2.50 per day, which includes breakfast, provided by Chartwells, this must be booked and paid for via Parentmail. If you have any difficulties booking, please contact the school office.
“Stay and Play” is an outside company that provide after school care from 3.00pm-6.00pm. For more information, follow this link: Stay & Play
We run a variety of extracurricular school clubs each term. Some of these are run voluntarily by the staff and others are provided by outside associations so may incur a charge. Clubs finish at either 3.45pm, 4pm or 4.15pm depending upon the type of club and its provider.
A letter for available clubs is sent out each term. We always ensure that every child is allocated a place in a club. Additional places will then be offered to the children after this allocation.
School trips are a powerful tool, which, enable us all to extend our knowledge, curiosity and enhance our social, personal and emotional development. They broaden our horizons – the engagement and joy from them benefits us all for a long time after we have returned to school.
We, at New Horizons, are fortunate to live in a culturally rich area and are able to engage in trips in a wide variety of places covering a wide range of experiences. On some occasions, we invite visitors into school to share their wealth of knowledge and experiences. This can range from authors, religious figures, museum curators and many more.
