Enrichment

Edmund Waller offers a range of extra-curricular activities to children in Years 1 to 6. Depending on year group, we offer sports, music, art, dance, languages, chess, gardening, Taekwondo, science and Lego clubs.   It’s a chance for pupils to develop new skills and grow in confidence whilst having fun with friends.

*Please note that there are additional costs associated with Taekwondo.  It requires membership of the British Taekwondo Association @£35 per year, and graded belts will be offered twice per year at £30 per belt.   This will be advised and organised by the tutor once your child is offered a place in the club. Taekwondo suits are optional and can be purchased for £30 from the tutor.
