Getting Involved
Extracurricular and School Clubs
There are plenty of opportunities at Glyn School to join clubs and to get involved in extracurricular activities. The full list is published at the start of each year, so watch out in September for the activities and clubs you will be able to join.
If you are musical, there are clubs on offer at lunchtime in the Music Department. Soul Band, Ukulele Group and Junior Band are just three examples. Students who join these clubs will then also have the chance to perform in a variety of concerts, such as the Spring Concert, Creative Arts Evening and the Christmas Carol Concert.
If you enjoy performing, there are many opportunities to get involved with Drama. Drama club runs regularly throughout the year. In addition to this, every year we have a whole school production, performed in June. In 2023, our production was Grease, which we performed to over 900 people across two evenings. This followed on from the huge success of ‘Bugsy Malone’ in 2022 and 'Guys and Dolls' before that.
Other clubs on offer include the IT, Lego, reading, drama, hockey, chess, fencing, hockey, boxing and the debating club, to name just a few.
The clubs run before school, at lunchtime and after school….there is literally something for everyone!
Whichever clubs you belong to, these are a great way to make new friends and to take part in something fun.
School Teams
Every Saturday morning Glyn School fields many sports teams. The range of sporting activities in which you can participate is truly impressive. In recent terms we have sent our students to represent the school in track and field events, cricket, golf, rugby, badminton, basketball, swimming and of course, in football.
Many year groups have more than one team out representing the school on a Saturday, so you have a great chance to play for the school. Further information regarding football and rugby trials, new sports clubs and opportunities that are available to students will be given to students, Parents and Carers via our weekly school newsletter.
All sporting teams have regular practices after school and these can be found on the Extracurricular Timetable which is published at the start of each year.
