Extra Curricular School Clubs

We see involvement in extra curricular and enrichment activities as both a right and a responsibility (for students). As such, we actively encourage our students to participate in the wide range of opportunities available to them.

At Gosforth Junior High, we offer a variety of extra curricular clubs that run before and after school. These clubs are free for everyone to attend and are organised and ran by our staffing team. They include homework and study clubs, game clubs, sports clubs, and creative arts, with activities changing each term. Our schedule of pre and post school extra curricular clubs can be viewed below.

Our Performing Arts department showcases two performances at Christmas and a summer show, all of which encourage students of all abilities and interests to take part.

Our school library is open to all students at the times below:
  • Monday to Thursday: 8:00 - 8:30 | 15:20 - 16:00
  • Friday: 8:00 - 08:30 | closed after school
