Extra Curricular
Inspired by our school mission: “I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit” John 15:5, we seek to form pupils who are empowered to develop into the best version of themselves. Enrichment is at the heart of our school ethos ensuring that the young people in our care are given every opportunity to ‘bear fruit’. During their time at St Bede’s pupils will have the opportunity to experience a wide range of trips, visits, clubs & groups, compete in external competition, listen to external speakers and experience performances. These opportunities enrich pupil experience, helping them to grow in character and build the knowledge and skills needed to thrive in the future. Enrichment at St Bede’s exposes our pupils to a wide range of diverse spiritual and cultural experiences alongside opportunities to try out new interests and serve the common good. Curriculum and wider enrichment opportunities provide our pupils with experiences that lead to transformation.
Extra-Curricular Provision
Our enrichment provision is carefully planned to reflect our vision to provide a transformative Catholic education ensuring that our pupils are empowered to serve the common good, by living out the values of Faith, Hope and Love.
Our extra-curricular programme here at St Bede’s is exceptional. The vast range of activities on offer from Physical Education to Gardening Club, Sign Club to Art, Music and Million Minutes, there really is something for every pupil. We see hundreds of pupils attend these clubs each week and this again adds to our relationship-driven approach and allows us to see our talented, dedicated and committed pupils in different lights.
