Enrichment Activities

Sports Day

Our annual Sports Day is a celebration of teamwork, determination and personal achievement, where every child is encouraged to take part and do their very best. Through a range of fun and competitive events, children develop resilience, confidence and a lifelong enjoyment of being active.

Our High Impact Curriculum Days provide exciting, hands-on learning experiences that inspire curiosity and deepen children's understanding across the curriculum. From STEM challenges using LEGO® SPIKE, heart dissections and pond dipping to a wide range of practical investigations and creative workshops, these memorable days encourage children to think critically, solve problems and develop a love of learning.

Our History and Geography curriculum is enriched through carefully planned educational visits that bring learning to life. From exploring local parks, visiting libraries and taking walks around our local area to discovering historical landmarks and geographical features, these real-life experiences help children make meaningful connections with their classroom learning and develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.

Whole-school themed weeks, including Science Week, Anti-Bullying Week and Mental Health Awareness Day, bring our school community together through shared learning experiences and exciting activities. These special events celebrate our school values, promote wellbeing and inclusion, and encourage every child to develop new skills, build positive relationships and make lasting memories.

Performances are a treasured part of life at St Werburgh's, giving every child the opportunity to shine. From our EYFS and Key Stage 1 Christmas Nativity to our Year 6 end-of-year production, such as this year's wonderful performance of The Wizard of Oz, children build confidence, creativity and teamwork while creating lasting memories for families and the wider school community.

Our outdoor learning opportunities make the most of our beautiful prayer garden, a peaceful natural space where children can explore, discover and learn through hands-on experiences. Whether taking part in curriculum activities, reflective prayer, nature-based learning or collaborative challenges, children develop curiosity, resilience and a deeper appreciation of God's world.

We offer a wide range of free after-school clubs to ensure there is something for every child to enjoy. From science, coding and outdoor learning to sports, drama and many more exciting activities, our clubs provide opportunities to develop new skills, discover talents and build friendships, while remaining accessible to all families.

Our annual Enterprise Day gives every class the opportunity to develop creativity, teamwork and financial awareness through a real-life business challenge. Each year group designs and makes a product, decides on a selling price and then markets and sells it to other classes before using the profits to choose and enjoy a well-earned class treat.

At St Werburgh's, we encourage children to live out our Gospel values by supporting a range of charitable events throughout the year. From CAFOD fundraising, including our annual Porridge Day, to Children in Need, charity walks and festive Elf Runs, our pupils learn the importance of compassion, generosity and making a positive difference to the lives of others.
