Activities
Summer term activities will be open for online registration via the Activities Hub (activities.clairescourt.net) from Friday 16 March. Listings will be available online early next week, so have a look and decide what you would like to do.
Please check that your login details are correct before Friday 16 as assistance with logging in will not be available between going live and Monday 19 March.
Registration will remain open until 9.00am on Monday 26 March. Closing registration prior to the end of term will enable staff to ensure any organisational matters for the activity groups can be resolved before the holiday.
Activities will begin on Monday 23 April 2018. Any pupil travelling home on the bus must be signed up for an activity, study session or pre-prep after school care. Pupils not staying after school must register as “Going Home”, ensuring that our “after-hours” fire lists are correct.
If you have any queries, please direct them to activities@clairescourt.net rather than calling the school offices as this will avoid any delay.
