After School Clubs
At Northlew Primary, we offer a wide range of extra-curricular after school clubs including sports, martial arts, cookery, art and craft, homework and gardening. The clubs are run by staff members and outside providers after school to ensure that the children have access to try out new things as well as improve their skills in areas that they really enjoy!
