Activities

St Christopher is proud of its innovative curricular and extra-curricular activities. These are central to the development of well-rounded individuals and offer our students a wealth of new experiences.

Our popular Thursday afternoon Options Programme is part of the school curriculum. Groups are formed across age ranges and abilities from Years 7-13.

Options can include Amnesty International, Duke of Edinburgh's Award, Community Service, Climbing, Philosophy, Technical Theatre skills, Self-Defence and the Sports Leader's Award.

There is also an activities programme during lunchtimes and after school. Activities can include Yoga, Pottery, Canoeing, Chi Gung, Fitness Training and sessions to provide additional support in a number of curriculum subjects.

Global Perspectives

A practical commitment to global issues has always been a central value of the School.

Our Sixth Form Students visit Rajasthan (twice a year) and Kosovo. Students in Years 10/11 can take part in an expedition to Ladakh (Indian Himalayas). Their aim is purposeful involvement with local communities.

Visits

Our educational visits programme is, we believe, highly distinctive. Trips are an important feature of the Junior and Senior School curriculum. By encountering achievable challenges our students have the chance to succeed in areas that they previously thought were beyond them.

Visits are organized carefully according to our strict guidelines, to ensure that students and their families are fully informed. All due checks are carried out to ensure students' safety and enjoyment.

Evening Classes

As part of our continued commitment to our local community, we offer a range of evening classes throughout the year.

These classes are open to everyone. Classes may include Astronomy, Spanish, French, Aerobics and Arabic Dance, Swimming, Chi Gung / Tai Chi and Jewellery-Making.
