Extra Curricular

Adcote offers an array of Extra Curricular Activities including; fencing, riding, music, gymnastics, dance, enterprise club, debating, product design, LAMDA, STEM competitions and many more. Our staff deliver these activities with skill, passion and a knack for developing core skills.

These activities take place beyond the academic curriculum and form an important part of the ethos and school life at Adcote. Our Extra Curricular Programme is designed to stimulate young minds and provide girls with an all-round education. Our activities run weekly throughout the school year.

We encourage all Adcote pupils to get involved with a range of activities. We want all of our pupils to challenge themselves and try something new and unusual. Often involvement in a particular area can sometimes lead to life-long pursuits. We feel confident that there is something for everyone!
